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

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

  • Vertebrate L13 (was previously known as Breast Basic Conserved protein 1 (BBC1)).
  • Drosophila L13.
  • Plant L13.
  • Yeast L13 (RPL13A and RPL13B).
  • Aeropyrum pernix and Sulfolobus L13e.

These proteins have 77 to 218 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we selected a stretch of about 16 residues in the first third of these proteins.

Last update:

December 2004 / Pattern and text revised.
