  • Published:
Current Genetics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

  1. 1.

    Nuclear mutants lacking cytochrome c l spectrum have been isolated.

  2. 2.

    The electron flow through the respiratory chain of the mutants is defect in the cytochrome bc 1-segment.

  3. 3.

    Complementation analysis has yielded two major complementation groups.

  4. 4.

    Tetrade analysis has established the two complementation groups as unlinked.
