title: Cloning and sequencing of the fbcF, B and C genes encoding the cytochrome b/c1 complex from Rhodopseudomonas viridis.
abstract: The complete nucleotide sequence of the genes encoding the Rieske FeS, the cytochrome b and the cytochrome c1 subunits of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c2 oxidoreductase from the photosynthetic purple bacterium Rhodopseudomonas viridis, and the derived amino acid sequences are presented. These three genes, fbcF, fbcB and fbcC, are located at contiguous sites of the genome. The DNA-deduced amino acid sequences are compared with known primary structures of corresponding proteins from other purple photosynthetic bacteria, as well as mitochondria, cyanobacteria and chloroplasts.
