The role of respiration-dependent proton translocation in the acid tolerance of Gluconobacter oxydans

Gluconobacter oxydans is characterized by extreme acid tolerance and the ability to carry out rapid, single-step polyol oxidation catalyzed by membrane bound ehydrogenases. Experiments were designed to determine whether acid tolerance is associated with rapid polyol oxidation in this organism. Washe...
