Anaerobiosis Lack cytochrome-cannot use oxygen as hydrogen acceptor Lack cytochrome-cannot use oxygen as hydrogen acceptor Most Lack Most Lack – Catalase – Peroxidase Contain flavoprotein so in the presence of oxygen produce H2O2 which is toxic Contain flavoprotein so in the presence of oxygen produce H2O2 which is toxic Some lack enzyme superoxide dismutase so many killed, peroxide and toxic radicales enzyme like fumarate reductase must be reduced form to work Some lack enzyme superoxide dismutase so many killed, peroxide and toxic radicales enzyme like fumarate reductase must be reduced form to work
