Primary structure of rat ribosomal protein L36a.
The amino acid sequence of rat ribosomal protein L36a, which may form part of the peptidyl transferase center, was deduced from the sequence of nucleotides in a recombinant cDNA and confirmed from the amino-terminal amino acid sequence of the protein. Ribosomal protein L36a contains 105 amino acids (the amino-terminal methionine is removed after translation of the mRNA) and has a molecular weight of 12,311. Hybridization of the cDNA to digests of nuclear DNA suggests that there are multiple copies of the L36a gene. Rat ribosomal protein L36a is homologous to a protein HL44 present in ribosomes of humans and protein 44 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae ribosomes.
