Abstract
The genes encoding cytochrome f ( petA), cytochrome b 6 ( petB), the Rieske FeS-protein ( petC), and subunit IV ( petD) of the cytochrome b 6 f complex from the thermophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus were cloned and sequenced. Similar to other cyanobacteria, the structural genes are arranged in two short, single-copy operons, petC/petA and petB/petD, respectively. In addition, five open reading frames with homology to known orfs from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803 were identified in the immediate vicinity of these two operons.
