Helical packing in the hydrophobic sector of cytochrome c oxidase

J Inorg Biochem. 1985 Mar-Apr;23(3-4):177-82. doi: 10.1016/0162-0134(85)85023-6.

Abstract

An arrangement for the membrane-spanning segments of the three larger subunits of cytochrome c oxidase is proposed on the basis of sequence comparison and polarity distribution estimated from the data available for 11 different organisms.
