Amino acid sequence of cytochrome c-552 from Thermus thermophilus HB8

The complete amino acid sequence of thermophilic cytochrome c-552 from Thermus thermophilus HB8 is presented. The 131-residue sequence was derived by analysis of three cyanogen bromide fragments of the S-carboxymethylated apo-protein and their subpeptides. The sequence is homologous to c-type cytochromes, especially in the heme-binding region.
