Respiration in the yeast and mycelial phases of Histoplasma capsulatum

J Bacteriol. 1979 May;138(2):647-9. doi: 10.1128/jb.138.2.647-649.1979.

Abstract

Respiration in the yeast and mycelial phases of Histoplasma capsulatum proceeds via a cytochrome system and an alternate oxidase, both present constitutively. The mycelial cytochrome system is distinguished by an additional partial shunt around the antimycin-sensitive site.
