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 L19 is one of the proteins from the large ribosomal subunit. In Escherichia coli, L19 is known to be located at the 30S-50S ribosomal subunit interface and may play a role in the structure and function of the aminoacyl-tRNA binding site. It belongs to a family of ribosomal proteins which, on the basis of sequence similarities, groups:
- Eubacterial L19.
- Red algal chloroplast L19.
- Cyanelle L19.
L19 is a protein of 120 to 130 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we selected a conserved region in the C-terminal section.
Last update:April 2006 / Pattern revised.
