Abstract excerpt
The Arabidopsis thaliana genome contains two nearly identical genes which encode proteins showing similarity with the yeast metal chaperone Cox19p, involved in cytochrome c oxidase biogenesis. One of these genes (AtCOX19-1) produces two transcript forms that arise from an alternative splicing event and encode proteins with different N-terminal portions. Both AtCOX19 isoforms are imported into mitochondria in...
