PROSITE documentation PDOC00901Ribosomal protein L21e signature
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 L21 [1].
- Entamoeba histolytica L21 [2].
- Caenorhabditis elegans L21 (C14B9.7).
- Yeast L21E (URP1) [3].
- Halobacterium marismortui HL31 [4].
These proteins have 160 (eukaryotes) or 95 (archebacteria) amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we selected a conserved region in the central part of these proteins.
Last update:April 2006 / Pattern revised.
