Abstract
The rubredoxin content of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus in dependence on the carbon source (acetate, n-alkanes, succinate, L-malate) and on the growth phase was studied by means of a radioimmunoassay. The method used was specific for rubredoxin and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus. The formation of rubredoxin increased with time up to the end of the logarithmic phase when n-alkanes were the sole carbon source. After growth of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus on non-hydrocarbon substrates, rubredoxin was not detected.
