Title Ubiquinone systems of Coccidioides immitis, the causative agent of coccidioidomycosis.
Journal FEMS Microbiol Lett
Abstract The ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) systems of eleven strains of Coccidioides immitis were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The ubiquinone profile of the fungi was shown to be homogeneous: in all of the strains, ubiquinone-10 (Q-10) was demonstrated to be the major component, with Q-9 as a minor component. The results imply that the ubiquinone system may serve as an additional phenotypic criterion for identifying the fungus.
