Abstract excerpt
The sdhB gene encoding an iron-sulfur (Ip) subunit of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH, EC 1.3.99.1) complex was cloned from Mortierella alpina 1S-4. The deduced amino acid sequence of SdhB from M. alpina 1S-4 showed high similarity to those of SdhB from other organisms. The mutated sdhB (CBXB) gene encodes a modified SdhB with an amino-acid substitution (a highly conserved histidine residue within the third...
