- * Ribosomal protein S10 signature *
- ***********************************
-
- Ribosomal protein S10 is one of the proteins from the small ribosomal subunit.
- In Escherichia coli, S10 is known to be involved in binding tRNA to the
- ribosomes. It belongs to a family of ribosomal proteins which, on the basis
- of sequence similarities [1], groups:
-
- - Eubacterial S10.
- - Archaebacterial S10.
- - Algal chloroplast S10.
- - Cyanelle S10.
- - Marchantia polymorpha mitochondrial S10.
- - Mammalian S20.
- - Rice S20.
- - Xenopus S22.
-
- S10 is a protein of about 100 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we
- selected a conserved region located in the center of these proteins.
-
- -Consensus pattern: [AV]-x(3)-[GDNS]-[LIVMSTA]-x-[LIVMSTA]-x-G-P-[LIVM]-x-
- [LIVM]-P-T
- -Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the pattern: ALL, except
- for Marchantia polymorpha mitochondrial S10.
- -Other sequence(s) detected in SWISS-PROT: NONE.
- -Last update: June 1994 / Pattern and text revised.
