{PDOC00744} {PS00962; RIBOSOMAL_S2_1} {PS00963; RIBOSOMAL_S2_2} {BEGIN} *********************************** * Ribosomal protein S2 signatures * *********************************** Ribosomal protein S2 is one of the proteins from the small ribosomal subunit. S2 belongs to a family of ribosomal proteins which, on the basis of sequence similarities [1,2], groups: - Eubacterial S2. - Algal and plant chloroplast S2. - Cyanelle S2. - Archaebacterial S2. - Higher eukaryotes P40 (previously thought to be a laminin receptor). - Yeast NAB1. - Plant mitochondrial S2. - Yeast mitochondrial MRP4. S2 is a protein of 235 to 394 amino-acid residues. As signature patterns, we selected two conserved regions. One is located in the N-terminal section and the other in the central section. -Consensus pattern: [LIVMFA]-x-{GPRV}-[LIVMFYC](2)-{LPC}-[STAC]-[GSTANQEKR]- [STALV]-[HY]-[LIVMF]-G -Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the pattern: ALL, except for three sequences. -Other sequence(s) detected in Swiss-Prot: 41. -Consensus pattern: P-x(2)-[LIVMF](2)-[LIVMS]-x-[GDN]-x(3)-[DENL]-x(3)-[LIVM]- x-E-x(4)-[GNQKRH]-[LIVM]-[AP] -Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the pattern: ALL. -Other sequence(s) detected in Swiss-Prot: NONE. -Last update: December 2004 / Pattern and text revised.
