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 [1,2]. One of these families consists of:
- Vertebrate L27.
- Plant and algal L27.
- Fungi L27.
These proteins have 134 to 138 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we selected a highly conserved stretch of 12 residues in their C-terminal extremity.
Last update:December 2001 / Pattern and text revised.
