Abstract
CDNA clones for bovine adrenodoxin reductase were isolated, and the primary structure of the enzyme precursor was deduced from their nucleotide sequences. The precursor consists of 492 amino acids including an extrapeptide of 32 amino acids at the amino terminus. The rapeptide is hydrophobic and rich in arginine. The amino terminal sequence of the precursor is homologous with that of the adrenodoxin precursor. A possible FAD- or NADPH-binding site is present near the amino terminus of the mature enzyme.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
