Research paper

The primary structure of the cDNA copy of the evolutionary conserved gene Nc73EF from the region 73EF of Drosophila melanogaster was determined. Gene Nc73EF was shown to encode a protein highly homologous to the E1 subunit of human 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, which catalyzes one of the key reactions of the Krebs cycle.
