Abstract excerpt
The QCR8 genes encoding subunit VIII of the bc1 complex from Kluyveromyces lactis and Schizosaccharomyces pombe partially complement the respiratory-deficient phenotype of a S. cerevisiae QCR8-null mutant. This implies that the heterologous Qcr8 subunits can be imported by S. cerevisiae mitochondria and that they assemble to form a hybrid bc1 complex that is sufficiently active to support growth. In contrast, the...
