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.

Description
Ribosomal protein S16 is one of the proteins from the small ribosomal subunit. It belongs to a family of ribosomal proteins which, on the basis of sequence similarities [1], groups:
- Eubacterial S16.
- Algal and plant chloroplast S16.
- Cyanelle S16.
- Neurospora crassa mitochondrial S24 (cyt-21).
S16 is a protein of about 100 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we selected a conserved region located in the N-terminal extremity of these proteins.
Last update:December 2004 / Pattern and text revised.
