The primary structure of rat ribosomal proteins P0, P1, and P2 and a proposal for a uniform nomenclature for mammalian and yeast ribosomal proteins

Biochimie. 1991 Jul-Aug;73(7-8):861-70. doi: 10.1016/0300-9084(91)90127-m.

Abstract

The covalent structures of rat ribosomal proteins P0, P1, and P2 were deduced from the sequences of nucleotides in recombinant cDNAs. P0 contains 316 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 34,178; P1 has 114 residues and a molecular weight of 11,490: and P2 has 115 amino acids and a molecular weight of 11,684. The rat P-proteins have a near identical (16 of 17 residues) sequence of amino acids at their carboxyl termini and are related to analogous proteins in other eukaryotic species. A proposal is made for a uniform nomenclature for rat and yeast ribosomal proteins.
