The amino acid sequences are compaired and the homology indexes are calculated for cytochromes of C1-type and for ND6 proteins coded on the mitochondrial genome. The ND6 proteins have greatest homology index with the cytochrome C1. In mitochondrial 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 C1.References
