{PDOC00850} {PS01106; RIBOSOMAL_L18E} {BEGIN} ************************************ * Ribosomal protein L18e signature * ************************************ A number of eukaryotic and archaebacterial ribosomal proteins can be grouped on the basis of sequence similarities. One of these families consists of: - Vertebrate L18 (known as L14 in Xenopus) [1]. - Plant L18. - Yeast L18 (Rp28). - Halobacterium marismortui Hl29. - Sulfolobus acidocaldarius Hl29e. These proteins have 115 to 187 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we selected a stretch of about 13 residues in the first third of these proteins. -Consensus pattern: [KREWDI]-x-L-x(2)-[PSRG]-[KRS]-x(2)-[RHY]-[PSA]-x-[LIVM]- [NSA]-[LIVM]-x-[RK]-[LIVM] -Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the pattern: ALL. -Other sequence(s) detected in Swiss-Prot: NONE. -Last update: April 2006 / Pattern revised.
