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.
