Abstract excerpt
The interaction of the N- and C-terminal helices is a hallmark of the cytochrome c family. Oligodeoxyribonucleotide-directed random mutagenesis within the gene encoding the C102T protein variant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae iso-1-cytochrome c was used to generate a library of mutations at the evolutionary invariant residues Gly-6 and Phe-10 in the N-terminal helix. Transformation of this library (contained on a...
