A comparison of the amino acid sequences of Crithidia fasciculata and Trypanosoma rhodesiense cytochromes c.
Apocytochrome c was isolated from procyclic trypomastigotes of Trypanosoma rhodesiense EATRO 1895 and purified on Amberlite IRC-50 ion-exchange resin. Tryptic peptides were generated from the purified apoprotein and a partial amino acid sequence was determined. A comparison of the amino acid sequence of Crithidia fasciculata with the partial amino acid sequence of T. rhodesiense reveals significant homology.
