We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Bairoch (1957–2025), the creator of PROSITE. We wish to dedicate our latest paper, published shortly before his death, to him. He will always be a source of inspiration to us.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends, and to all those who had the privilege of working with him. Rest in peace, Amos. Your work will live on long after you are gone.
Amos Bairoch

Description

A number of eukaryotic and archaebacterial ribosomal proteins can be grouped on the basis of sequence similarities. One of these families consists of:

  • Mammalian ribosomal protein L19 [1].
  • Drosophila ribosomal protein L19 [2].
  • Slime mold (D. discoideum) vegetative specific protein V14 [3].
  • Yeast ribosomal protein L19 (YL14).
  • Archebacterial ribosomal protein L19E.

These proteins have 148 to 203 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we selected a stretch of about 20 residues in the N-terminal part of these proteins.

Last update:

December 2004 / Pattern and text revised.
