Abstract excerpt
Site-directed mutagenesis has been used to change the codon for cysteine-107 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae iso-1-cytochrome c to a threonine codon. The resulting protein is active in vivo, is methylated as in the wild-type protein and has optical properties indistinguishable from those of the wild-type protein. The threonine-107 iso-1-cytochrome c demonstrated fully reversible electrochemical behaviour and a...
