- * Ribosomal protein L20 signature *
- ***********************************
-
- Ribosomal protein L20 is one of the proteins from the large ribosomal subunit.
- In Escherichia coli, L20 is known to bind directly to the 23S rRNA. It belongs
- to a family of ribosomal proteins which, on the basis of sequence
- similarities [1], groups:
-
- - Eubacterial L20.
- - Plant and algal chloroplast L20.
- - Cyanelle L20.
-
- L20 is a protein of about 120 amino-acid residues. As a signature pattern, we
- selected a conserved region in the central section.
-
- -Consensus pattern: K-x(3)-[KR]-x-[LIVM]-W-I-[STNAV]-R-[LIVM]-N-x(3)-[RK]
- -Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the pattern: ALL.
- -Other sequence(s) detected in SWISS-PROT: NONE.
- -Last update: June 1994 / First entry.
