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:

  • Vertebrate S24 [1].
  • Yeast Rp50.
  • Mucor racemosus S24 [2].
  • Plant S24.
  • Archebacterial S24e.

These proteins have 91 to 148 amino acids. As a signature pattern, we selected a well conserved stretch in the central part of these proteins.

Last update:

April 2006 / Pattern revised.
