The purification and amino acid sequence of cytochrome c-552 from Euglena gracilis

Amino acid sequence of cytochrome c-552 from a thermophilic hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium, Hydrogenobacter thermophilus.

The complete amino acid sequence of cytochrome c-552 from an extremely thermophilic hydrogen bacterium, Hydrogenobacter thermophilus TK-6 (IAM 12695), was determined. It is a single polypeptide chain of 80 residues, and its molecular weight, including heme, was calculated to be 7,599. The sequence of cytochrome c-552 from H. thermophilus TK-6 closely resembles that of cytochromes c-551 from Pse...

The amino acid sequence of wheat germ cytochrome c.

Determination of the complete amino acid sequence of wheat germ cytochrome c has shown that the molecule consists of a single polypeptide chain of 112 residues. On alignment with mammalian cytochromes, the peptide chain extends for 8 residues at the NH&erminal end. In contrast with other cytochromes that have a peptide chain longer than 104 residues, the NHt-terminal residue is Nacetylalanine. ...

Complete sequence of Euglena gracilis chloroplast DNA.

We report the complete DNA sequence of the Euglena gracilis, Pringsheim strain Z chloroplast genome. This circular DNA is 143,170 bp, counting only one copy of a 54 bp tandem repeat sequence that is present in variable copy number within a single culture. The overall organization of the genome involves a tandem array of three complete and one partial ribosomal RNA operons, and a large single co...
