TLDR
Evidence derived from spectrophotometry and from the differential inhibition by antimycin A of O2 and NO3− reduction leads to the conclusion that the nitrate reductase interacted with the respiratory chain in the region of the b-type cytochrome, and that the c-type Cytochrome present was not involved in the reduction ofNO3− to NO2−.

Cytochrome bc1 complexes of microorganisms.

TL;DR: The cytochrome bc1 complex is the most widely occurring electron transfer complex capable of energy transduction and the mechanism which links proton translocation to electron transfer through these proteins appears to be universal to all bc1 complexes.

Composition and properties of the membrane-bound respiratory chain system of Micrococcus denitrificans

TL;DR: Evidence is given of the nature of orientation of the respiratory chain pigments on the membrane of Micrococcus denitrificans and the rates of electron transfer are high in cells grown under all conditions tested, and there is no evidence that the respiratory system is composed of fixed units with precise stoichiometry.

The two-haem nitrite reductase of Micrococcus denitrificans.

TL;DR: This work characterises a two-haem cytochrome isolated from Micrococcus denitrificans, which is present only in cells grown anaerobically in the presence of NO 3 - and it has both nitrite reductase and Cytochrome c oxidase activities when assayed with reduced Micro coccus cy tochrome c as substrate.
