* Ribosomal protein L14 signature *
***********************************

Ribosomal protein L14 is one of the proteins from the large ribosomal subunit.
In eubacteria,  L14 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],
groups:

 - Eubacterial L14.
 - Algal and plant chloroplast L14.
 - Cyanelle L14.
 - Archaebacterial L14.
 - Yeast L17A.
 - Mammalian L23.
 - Caenorhabditis elegans L23 (B0336.10).
 - Higher eukaryotes mitochondrial L14.
 - Yeast mitochondrial Yml38 (gene MRPL38).

L14 is a protein of 119 to 137 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we
selected a conserved region located in the C-terminal half of these proteins.

-Consensus pattern: [GA]-[LIV](3)-x(9,10)-[DNS]-G-x(4)-[FY]-x(2)-[NT]-x(2)-V-
                    [LIV]
-Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the pattern: ALL,  except
 for pine L14 and for Acanthamoeba mitochondrial L14.
-Other sequence(s) detected in Swiss-Prot: NONE.
-Last update: November 1997 / Pattern and text revised.
