The primary structure of rat ribosomal protein S3.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The amino acid sequence of rat ribosomal protein S3, which has been reported to form part of the binding site for initiation factors, was deduced from the sequence of nucleotides in a recombinant cDNA. Ribosomal protein S3 contains 243 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 26,643. Rat S3 and Xenopus laevis ribosomal protein S1 are homologous: There are 62 identities in 63 consecutive residues in the carboxyl-terminal amino acid acid sequence of rat S3 and in a partial sequence of Xenopus S1. Hybridization of rat S3 cDNA to digests of nuclear DNA suggests that there are 8-10 copies of the S3 gene. The mRNA for the protein is about 950 nucleotides in length.

A cDNA which encodes human 40S ribosomal protein s3 has been isolated from a lambda-Gem 2 cDNA library constructed using poly (A+) RNA from human WISH cells. The cDNA insert includes a 5' noncoding sequence of 22 nucleotides, an open reading frame of 729 nucleotides and a 3' noncoding sequence of 82 nucleotides followed by a 3' poly A tail. The hexameter AATAAA, which is the signal sequence for...
متن کاملThe histone-like H protein of Escherichia coli is ribosomal protein S3.
We report the purification of four proteins from Escherichia coli that stimulate or inhibit inter- and/or intramolecular recombination promoted by the yeast plasmid-encoded FLP protein. The proteins are identified as the ribosomal proteins S3 (27 kDa), L2 (26 kDa), S4 (24 kDa), and S5 (16 kDa), on the basis of N-terminal sequence analysis. The S3 protein is found to be identical to H protein, a...

The extraribosomal functions of ribosomal proteins have drawn significant recent attention. Ribosomal protein S3 (RPS3), a component of the eukaryotic 40S ribosomal subunit, is a multifunctional protein that regulates DNA repair, apoptosis, and the innate immune response to bacterial infection. Here we the review the latest findings about RPS3 extraribosomal functions, with special emphasis on ...

Brucellosis, caused by Brucella spp., is an important zoonotic disease that causes abortion and infertility in cattle and undulant fever in humans. Various studies have examined cell-free native and recombinant proteins as candidate protective antigens in animal models. Among Brucella immunogenes, antigen based on ribosomal preparation has been widely investigated. In this study, the immunogeni...
متن کاملThe primary structure of rat ribosomal protein L19. A determination from the sequence of nucleotides in a cDNA and from the sequence of amino acids in the protein.
The covalent structure of rat ribosomal protein L19 was inferred from the sequence of nucleotides in a recombinant cDNA and confirmed from the sequence of amino acids in a portion of the protein. Ribosomal protein L19 contains 196 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 26,971. There are indications that a segment of 23 residues in rat L19 is related to sequences of the same length in Escheri...
