26. Two nonidentical forms of subunit V are functional in yeast cytochrome c oxidase.
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the inner mitochondrial membrane protein cytochrome c oxidase is composed of nine polypeptide subunits. Six of these subunits (IV, V, VI, VII, VIIa, VIII) are encoded by the nuclear genome, and the remaining three (I, II, III) are encoded by mitochondrial DNA. We report here the existence of two nonidentical subunit V polypeptide

27. The mitochondrial genome of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe: highly homologous introns are inserted at the same position of the otherwise less conserved cox1 genes in Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Aspergillus nidulans.
The DNA sequence of the second intron in the mitochondrial gene for subunit 1 of cytochrome oxidase (cox1), and the 3' part of the structural gene have been determined in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Comparing the presumptive amino acid sequence of the 3' regions of the cox1 genes in fungi reveals similarly large evolutionary distances between Aspergillus nidu

28. Novel hybrid maturases in unstable pseudorevertants of maturaseless mutants of yeast mitochondrial DNA.
Unstable pseudorevertants of mitochondrial mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacking the maturase function encoded by the fourth intron of the cytochrome b gene (bI4) were isolated. They were found to be heteroplasmic cells owing their regained ability to respire (and grow on glycerol medium) to the presence of a rearranged (rho-) mtDNA that contains an in

29. MSS18, a yeast nuclear gene involved in the splicing of intron aI5 beta of the mitochondrial cox1 transcript.
We have isolated and characterized a nuclear gene, MSS18, which is implicated in the splicing of intron aI5 beta of the mitochondrial cox1 transcript (subunit 1 of the cytochrome c oxidase). Northern blotting and S1 nuclease protection experiments as well as the analysis of mitochondrial point revertants suggest that mss18 mutations block (perhaps indirectly

30. The sequence of the gene for cytochrome c oxidase subunit I, a frameshift containing gene for cytochrome c oxidase subunit II and seven unassigned reading frames in Trypanosoma brucei mitochrondrial maxi-circle DNA.
A 9.2 kb segment of the maxi-circle of Trypanosoma brucei mitochondrial DNA contains the genes for cytochrome c oxidase subunits I and II (coxI and coxII) and seven Unassigned Reading Frames ("URFs"). The genes for coxI and coxII display considerable homology at the aminoacid level (38 and 25%, respectively) to the corresponding genes in fungal and mammalian

32. Opposite effects of cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 activity on the pressor response to angiotensin II
Therapeutic use of cyclooxygenase-inhibiting (COX-inhibiting) nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is often complicated by renal side effects including hypertension and edema. The present studies were undertaken to elucidate the roles of COX1 and COX2 in regulating blood pressure and renal function. COX2 inhibitors or gene knockout dramatically augme

33. The maize cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene: sequence, expression and rearrangement in cytoplasmic male sterile plants
The single copy of the gene for cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COX I) present in the mitochondrial genome of fertile maize (Zea mays L.) is encoded by a continuous open reading frame of 1584 nucleotides. The predicted polypeptide encoded by the gene has a mol. wt. of 58 219 daltons and shows >60% amino acid sequence homology with the corresponding fungal an

34. Explosive invasion of plant mitochondria by a group I intron
Group I introns are mobile, self-splicing genetic elements found principally in organellar genomes and nuclear rRNA genes. The only group I intron known from mitochondrial genomes of vascular plants is located in the cox1 gene of Peperomia, where it is thought to have been recently acquired by lateral transfer from a fungal donor.

35. Adaptive evolution of cytochrome c oxidase subunit VIII in anthropoid primates
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is a 13-subunit protein complex that catalyzes the last step in mitochondrial electron transfer in mammals. Of the 10 subunits encoded by nuclear DNA (three are mtDNA products), some are expressed as tissue- and/or development-specific isoforms. For COX subunit VIII, previous work showed that expression of the contractile muscle-sp

36. Rapid evolution of the human gene for cytochrome c oxidase subunit IV.
We have compared the DNA sequences of nine mammalian genes for cytochrome c oxidase subunit IV (COX4 genes)--four expressed genes (human, bovine, rat, and mouse) and five pseudogenes (human, chimpanzee, orangutan, squirrel monkey, and bovine)--and constructed the sequence of the ancestral mammalian COX4 gene. By analyzing these sequences to determine the pat
