thingiverse

Model of Human cytochrome c based on the Protein Data Bank entry 3ZCF:http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=3zcf "Cytochrome c is a component of the electron transport chain in mitochondria. The heme group of cytochrome c accepts electrons from the bc1 complex and transfers electrons to the complex IV. Cytochrome c is also involved in initiation of apoptosis." -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytochrome_c STL file created using VMD:http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/ The protein backbone is represented in "cartoon" form. The heme group and residues ligating the heme iron are represented as spheres.
