Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome c(1) from mitochondrial complex III and the di-heme cytochromes c in the corresponding enzyme from epsilon-proteobacteria have so far been considered to represent unrelated cytochromes. A missing link protein discovered in the genome of the hyperthermophilic bacterium Aquifex aeolicus, however, provides evidence for a close evolutionary relationship between these two cytochromes. The mono-heme...
