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 [1]. One of these families consists of:
- Mammalian L15.
- Insect L15.
- Plant L15.
- Yeast YL10 (L13) (Rp15r).
- Archaebacterial L15e.
These proteins have about 200 amino acid residues. As a signature pattern, we selected a conserved region located in the central section.
Last update:April 2006 / Pattern revised.
