Cytochrome c assembly: a tale of ever increasing variation and mystery?

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 1 Jan 2000

Ferguson Stuart J, Stevens Julie M, Allen James W A, Robertson Ian B

Abstract excerpt

Formation of cytochromes c requires a deceptively simple post-translational modification, the formation of two thioether bonds (or rarely one) between the thiol groups of two cysteine residues found in a CXXCH motif (with some occasional variations) and the vinyl groups of heme. There are three partially characterised systems for facilitating this post-translational modification; within these systems there is...
