Ribosomal protein L11 signature

Description:

Ribosomal protein L11 is one of the proteins from the large ribosomal subunit. In Escherichia coli, L11 is known to bind directly to the 23S rRNA. It belongs to a family of ribosomal proteins which, on the basis of sequence similarities [1,2], groups:

  • Eubacterial L11.
  • Plant chloroplast L11 (nuclear-encoded).
  • Read algal chloroplast L11.
  • Cyanelle L11.
  • Archaebacterial L11.
  • Mammalian L12.
  • Plants L12.
  • Yeast L12 (YL15).

L11 is a protein of 140 to 165 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we have selected a conserved region located in the C-terminal section of these proteins. In Escherichia coli, the C-terminal half of L11 has been shown [3] to be in an extended and loosely folded conformation and is likely to be buried within the ribosomal structure.
