title: Two different forms of cytochrome c oxidase can be purified from the slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum.
abstract: Cytochrome c oxidase was purified from mitochondria of Dictyostelium discoideum cells harvested at different phases of the vegetative stage. Comparison of the preparations by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicates that the smallest enzyme subunit present during exponential growth is replaced by a larger polypeptide component in the stationary phase. The two polypeptides are structurally and immunologically unrelated.
