Abstract.   In this paper we prove the following result. Let n≥ 1 be some fixed integer and let R be a prime ring with 2n < char(R) ≠ 2. Suppose there exist additive mappings S,T:R → R satisfying the relations

S(x2n)=S(x)x2n-1+xT(x)x2n-2+x2S(x)x2n-3+ ⋯ +x2n-1T(x),

T(x2n)=T(x)x2n-1+xS(x)x2n-2+ x2T(x)x2n-3+ ⋯ +x2n-1S(x)

for all x R. In this case S and T are of the form 2S(x)=D(x)+ζ (x), 2T(x)=D(x)-ζ (x) for all x R, where D:R → R is a derivation and ζ is an additive mapping, which maps R into its extended centroid. Besides, ζ (x2n)=0 for all x R. Functional equations related to bicircular projections are also investigated.
