- * Ribosomal protein S7 signature *
- **********************************
-
- Ribosomal protein S7 is one of the proteins from the small ribosomal subunit.
- In Escherichia coli, S7 is known to bind directly to part of the 3'end of 16S
- ribosomal RNA. It belongs to a family of ribosomal proteins which, on the
- basis of sequence similarities [1,2], groups:
-
- - Eubacterial S7.
- - Archaebacterial S7.
- - Algal and plant chloroplast S7.
- - Cyanelle S7.
- - Plant mitochondrial S7.
- - Mammalian S5.
-
- As a signature pattern, we selected the best conserved region located in the
- N-terminal section of these proteins.
-
- -Consensus pattern: [DENSK]-x-[LIVME]-x(3)-[LIVMFT](2)-x(6)-G-K-[KR]-x(5)-
- [LIVMF](2)-x(2)-[STA]
- -Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the pattern: ALL, except
- for Thermococcus celer S7.
- -Other sequence(s) detected in SWISS-PROT: NONE.
- -Last update: June 1994 / Pattern and text revised.
