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.
Amos Bairoch

Description

The following uncharacterized proteins have been shown [1] to share regions of similarities:

  • Yeast chromosome II hypothetical protein YBR177c.
  • Yeast chromosome XIII hypothetical protein YMR210w.
  • Yeast chromosome XVI hypothetical protein YPL095c.
  • Escherichia coli hypothetical protein yheT.
  • Human protein pHPS1-2.
  • Drosophila protein anon-23D.
  • Picea glauca (white spruce) late embryogenesis abundant protein EMB8.
  • Caenorhabditis elegans hypothetical protein C44C1.5.

These are proteins of about 38 to 51 Kd whose central region contains a number of conserved regions. We chose one of these regions as a signature pattern.

Last update:

November 1997 / Pattern and text revised.
