Abstract
IT is quite definitely known1 that dihydrocozymase can be oxidized by molecular oxygen in the presence of diaphorase I plus the ‘cytochrome system’, but the nature of the cytochrome reaction has not been clearly demonstrated. On the basis of the experiments reported here, we believe that both cytochrome B and cytochrome C are required for the oxidation of both CoH2I and succinate.
