The primary structure of rat ribosomal protein L37a

The amino acid sequence of rat ribosomal protein L37a was deduced from the sequence of nucleotides in recombinant cDNAs isolated in Yamagata and in Chicago and confirmed from the NH2-terminal amino acid sequence of the protein. Ribosomal protein L37a contains 91 amino acids (the NH2-terminal methionine is removed after translation of the mRNA) and has a molecular mass of 10143 Da.
