Abstract Carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CO-DH) was found to be present in Acinetobacter sp. strain JC1 grown on CO and also on methylotrophic and heterotrophic substrates, except for pyruvate and nutrient broth. The amounts of CO-DH in cells grown on methylamine, glucose, galactose, and succinate were comparable to that of the CO-grown cells. CO-DH activity, however, was onot deteted by the dye-linked assay method in cell extracts prepared from cells grown on organic substrates, except on ethanol and succinate. THe activity was detected when the CO-DH was stained by activity using CO as a substrate. CO-DHs in cells grown on different substrates were found to be identical in immunological properties.
