cDNAs for rat ribosomal proteins S21 and L39 were characterized. S21 h
as 83 amino acids and a molecular weight of 9,121; L39 has 50 amino ac
ids and a molecular weight of 6,271. There are 8 to 9 copies of the S2
1, and 9 to 11 copies of the L39 genes. The mRNA for S21 is about 500
nucleotides in length and for L39 it is about 450. Rat S21 and L39 are
related to ribosomal proteins from other species. Corrections have be
en made in the amino acid sequences of L7 and L18a. The rat ribosomal
protein designated L33 from its coordinates on two-dimensional gels ha
s been found, from its amino rid sequence, to be identical to S24. (C)
