Amino-Terminal Sequences of Ribosomal Proteins from the 30 S Subunit of Archaebacterium Halobacterium cutirubrum

Methanogens and the diversity of archaebacteria.

“…The ribosomal proteins of archaebacteria have been best characterized for "Halobacterium cutirubrum" (308,310,453,531). However, comparisons with eubacterial and eucaryotic ribosomes are hampered by the complexity of the ribosome and incomplete sets of data on ribosomal proteins from other kingdoms.…”

“…However, comparisons with eubacterial and eucaryotic ribosomes are hampered by the complexity of the ribosome and incomplete sets of data on ribosomal proteins from other kingdoms. Although immunological and protein sequence data have identified a number of homologies with eubacterial and eucaryotic proteins, these studies are far from complete (9,241,308,310,348,398,401,402,531). The early observation that ribosomal proteins of archaebacteria are unusually acidic is well correlated with the intracytoplasmic concentrations of ions in halobacteria and some methanogens and is probably not of major phylogenetic significance (196).…”

Homologies of components of DNA-dependent RNA polymerases of archaebacteria, eukaryotes and eubacteria

“…Since then much additional evidence has been accumulated confirming the idea that there a re two groups of prokaryotes that are no more related to °ne another than either of them is related to the eucyta (i. e. the nuclear plus the cytoplasmic compartment of the e ukaryotes). This evidence includes comparison of differe nt parts of the translation apparatus (Fox et al, 1982;Matheson and Yaguchi, 1982;Yaguchi et al, 1982;Guptc *, 1984;Kessel and Klink, 1982;Cammarano et al, 1985), of the enzymes involved in replication (Prangishvilli and Zillig, 1984;Forterre et al, 1984;Nakayama et al, 1985;Klimczak et al, 1985) and transcription (Zillig * Paper given at the EMBO Workshop on the Molecular Genetics of Archaebacteria, München-Martinsried, June 23 to 26, 1985Schnabel et al, 1983;Huet et al, 1983;Prangishvilli et al, 1982), of cell wall composition (Kandier, 1982) and membrane structure (review by Langworthy et al, 1982).…”

Yeast ribosomal proteins: XII. YS11 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a homologue to E.coli S4 according to the gene analysis

“…units in RELATE score were chosen for further detailed comparison. Out of the chosen ones, six are likely related to the YS 1: E. coli S4 (33), Marchantia polymorpha chloroplast S4 (34), Nicotiana tabacum chloroplast S4 (35), maize chloroplast S4 (36), Halobacterium cutirubrum S9 (37) and Dictyostelium rp1024 (38). The comparison matrix prepared between YS11 and Dictyostelium rpl024 sequences depicts a single long wellmatching segment with a minor gap of only one residue (Fig. 6-A).…”
