Abstract excerpt
The structural genes of cytochrome-c oxidase in Bacillus subtilis have been isolated and sequenced. Five genes, ctaB-F, are closely spaced. ctaC, ctaD, ctaE and ctaF are the genes for subunits II, I, III and IVB, respectively, ctaB, which may encode an assembly factor, is separated and upstream from the others. In comparison to its mitochondrial counterparts, subunit I has an extended C-terminus with two...
