Abstract: | Circular dichroism studies on synthetic peptides related to the C-terminal region of yeast iso-1-cytochrome c were carried out and compared with conformational studies on horse cytochrome c fragments. Evidence is presented for a weaker predisposition for ordered structure in the former peptides when compared with the corresponding region in horse cytochrome c. These findings agree with theoretical predictions and with observations that yeast and other mammalian type cytochromes c differ in several minor respects. |
