Abstract: | Mutations specific for iso-2 cytochrome c were obtained in strains bearing a deletion of the structural gene of iso-1-cytochrome c. In this genetic context the mutations entail an inability to grow on glycerol. One of these mutants was shown to have a modified iso-2-cytochrome c as witnessed by its lack of stability and modified chromatographic behaviour. Genetic studies showed the mutations to be allelic to the mutation cyp3-15 previously identified by Clavilier (1) as a specific enhancer of iso-2-cytochrome c synthesis. The simplesthypothesis to explain the results is that the CYP3 locus is the structural gene for iso-2-cytochrome c. |
