Molecular cloning of bovine cardiac muscle heat-shock protein 70 kDa and its phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase in vitro.

abstract：:The cytochrome d complex is a two-subunit, membrane-bound terminal oxidase in the aerobic respiratory chain of Escherichia coli. The enzyme catalyzes the two-electron oxidation of ubiquinol and the four-electron reduction of oxygen to water. Previous work demonstrated that the site for ubiquinol oxidation was selectiv...
