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 and archaebacterial ribosomal proteins can be grouped on the basis of sequence similarities. One of these families consists of:
- Mammalian ribosomal protein L6 (L6 was previously known as TAX-responsive enhancer element binding protein 107).
- Caenorhabditis elegans ribosomal protein L6 (R151.3).
- Yeast ribosomal protein YL16A/YL16B.
- Mesembryanthemum crystallinum ribosomal protein YL16-like.
These proteins have 175 (yeast) to 287 (mammalian) amino acids. As a signature pattern, we selected a highly conserved region in the central part of these proteins.
Last update:December 2004 / Pattern and text revised.
