Sequence of the cDNA for the liver/non-muscle isoform of mouse cytochrome-c oxidase subunit VIII.
We have isolated and sequenced the cDNA for the liver (L) or non-muscle isoform of mouse cytochrome-c oxidase subunit VIII (COX VIII-L). Comparison of deduced COX VIII-L protein sequences from three mammalian species indicated that the human gene has sustained more amino acid replacement substitutions than either the mouse or the cow. The most highly conserved regions of this subunit are the N-terminal presequence and the C-terminal domain of the mature protein.
