TABLE 1.
Oxygen uptake by CH3Cl-grown resting cells of strain CC495 on various substrates (2 mM)
| Substrate | O2 uptakea (nmol/min/mg [wet wt]) |
|---|---|
| CH3F | 0 |
| CH3Cl | 0.62 ± 0.07 |
| CH3Br | 0.61 ± 0.03 |
| CH3I | 0.46 ± 0.01 |
| CH3SH | 0.09 ± 0.03 |
| CH3OH | 0 |
| HCHO | 0.60 ± 0.07 |
| HCOOH | 0.04 ± 0 |
| CH3NH2 | 0 |
| CH2Cl2 | 0 |
| C2H5Cl | 0 |

Initial rates of O2 uptake were determined as described in Materials and Methods. Values are corrected for an endogenous respiration rate of 0.22 nmol/min/mg (wet weight) and are the means of three replicates ± standard deviations.
