Abstract:
The primary structure of the nuclear-encoded 18.3 kDa subunit of the respiratory chain NADH: ubiquinone reductase (complex I) from Neurospora crassa was determined by sequencing cDNA and the N-terminus of the protein. The cDNA contains an open reading frame for a protein of 206 amino acids. The mature protein consists of 173 amino acids and has a molar mass of 18,341 Da. The precursor protein includes a characteristic mitochondrial import sequence with a typical matrix peptidase processing site.
