Abstract excerpt
The c-type cytochromes are haemoproteins that are subunits or physiological partners of electron transport chain components, like the cytochrome bc(1) complex or the cbb(3)-type cytochrome c oxidase. Their haem moieties are covalently attached to the corresponding apocytochromes via a complex post-translational maturation process. During our studies of cytochrome biogenesis, we uncovered a novel class of mutants...
