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 S3A (was originally known as v-fos transformation effector protein).
  • Caenorhabditis elegans S3A (F56F3.5).
  • Plant cytoplasmic S3A (CYC07) [1].
  • Yeast Rp10 (PLC1 and PLC2).
  • Fission yeast Rp10 (SpAC13G6.02c).
  • Methanococcus jannaschii MJ0980.

These proteins have from 220 to 250 amino acids. As a signature pattern, we selected a conserved stretch in their N-terminal section.
