Possibility of Cytochrome Ci Coding in Mammalian Mitochondrial Genome

Summary

    The amino acid sequences are compaired and the homology indexes are calculated for cytochromes of C-type and for ND6 proteins coded on the mitochondrial genome. The ND6 proteins have greatest homology index with the cytochrome Cj. In mito¬chondrial genome the gene coding the ND6 protein is arranged next to the gene coding the cytochrome b, a component of the 2nd complexes of respiratory chain, in which is contain also the cytochrome Ci.
