The primary structure of protein L21 from the 50S subunit of Escherichia coli ribosomes has been completely determined by sequencing the peptides obtained by digestion of L21 with trypsin before and after modification of the arginine residues with 1,2-cyclohexanedione, Staphylococcus aureus protease, thermolysin, and pepsin. Automated Edman degradation using a liquid-phase sequenator was carried out on the intact protein as well as on a fragment arising from cleavage with cyanogen bromide. Protein L21 consists of a single polypeptide chain of 103 amino acids of molecular weight 11 565. An estimation of the secondary structure of protein L21 and a comparison with other E. coli ribosomal protein sequences are presented.

The complete primary structure of an acidic ribosomal protein YPA1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been determined. YPA1 is composed of 110 amino acid residues and has the composition: Asp7, Asn2, Thr2, Ser9, Glu15, Gln2, Pro3, Gly15, Ala21, Val6, Met2, Ile4, Leu9, Tyr2, Phe3, Lys7 and Arg1. The molecular weight of YPA1 is 11,020. The amino acid sequence was determined by 4-N,N-dimethylaminoazobenzene 4'-isothiocyanate degradation of the peptides obtained by digestions with trypsins, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, pepsin and Staphylococcus aureus protease of intact protein. A comparison of protein YPA1 from yeast with eL12 from Artemia salina shows a high sequence similarity. A considerable similarity is also shown with HL20 from Halobacterium cutirubrum. On the other hand, there is very little apparent sequence similarity between YPA1 and the eubacterial acidic protein L12 either from E. coli or B. subtilis.
