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 ribosomal proteins can be grouped on the basis of sequence similarities [1]. One of these families consists of:

  • Mammalian S7.
  • Xenopus S8.
  • Insect S7.
  • Yeast probable ribosomal protein S7 (N2212).
  • Fission yeast probable ribosomal protein S7 (SpAC18G6.13c).

These proteins have about 200 amino acids. As a signature pattern we selected a highly conserved stretch of 14 residues which is located in the central section and which is rich in charged residues.

Last update:

December 2004 / Pattern and text revised.
