PROSITE documentation PDOC00310 |
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:
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.
