General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function human cyts c with deletion of a single residues in helix-1, DELTA M13 cyt c, is poorly matured by human HCCS. Although an HCCS-wild-type cytochrome c complex contains two covalent links, HCCS DELTA M13 cytochrome c contains only one thioether attachment. This attachment is to the second thiol of residues C15SQC18H. The serine residue (of CSQCH) would be anchored where the first cysteine should be in DELTA M13 cytochrome c. An engineered cytochrome c with a CQCH motif in the DELTA M13 background is matured at 2-3fold higher levels Homo sapiens
