Gf. Barnard et al., HUMAN RIBOSOMAL-PROTEIN L37 HAS MOTIFS PREDICTING SERINE THREONINE PHOSPHORYLATION AND A ZINC-FINGER DOMAIN/, Biochimica et biophysica acta, N. Gene structure and expression, 1218(3), 1994, pp. 425-428
Ribosomal protein L37 mRNA is overexpressed in colon cancer. The nucle
otide sequences of human L37 from several tumor and normal, colon and
liver cDNA sources were determined to be identical. L37 mRNA was simil
ar to 375 nucleotides long encoding 97 amino acids with M(r)=11070, pI
=12.6, multiple potential serine/threonine phosphorylation sites and a
zinc-finger domain. The human sequence is compared to other species.
