    Isolation from Salmonella typhimurium of mutants unable to reduce benzyl viologen under anaerobic conditions has allowed the study of the factors involved in the multienzymic formate hydrogenylase system. 1. Depending on the affected activities, different classes of mutants were found: FHL-A mutants have lost formate dehydrogenase 1 and formate dehydrogenase 2 activities; mutations in fdhA (117 min) or fdhB (33 min) lead to such a phenotype. FHL-B and FHL-C mutants have lost formate dehydrogenase 2 activity and part or all of hydrogenase activity, respectively; both types correspond to mutations in the hyd gene (approximately 90 min). FHL-D mutants have lost only formate dehydrogenase 2 activity; fhlD gene maps at 120 min. 2. In some cases, mixtures of extracts from two mutants display formate dehydrogenase 2 and formate hydrogenylase activities. Restoration studies suggest the existence of one factor sensitive to growth conditions and inactivated by oxygen or heating. This factor which is present and active in FHL-C mutants, is probably the one missing in FHL-D mutants. 3. A new scheme for the formate hydrogenylase system is proposed, in which hydrogenase transfers electrons directly to benzyl viologen.
