✦ Synopsis

A Cephalosporium acremonium mitochondrial gene equivalent to human URF1 has been identified. The primary structure of the protein is highly homologous to its human (39%) and A. nidulans (66%) counterparts. Hydrophobicity profiles and predicted secondary structures are also very similar suggesting that this gene codes for the subunit I of the respiratorychain NADH dehydrogenase. The nucleotide sequence of the gene, 70% homologous to the A. nidulans one, presents a high AT content (72%) and this fact is reflected in the codon usage.
