Abstract

The ribosomal protein HS23 from the 30S subunit of the extreme halophilicHaloarcula marismortui, belonging to the group of archaea, was isolated either by RP-HLPLC or two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The complete amino acid sequence was determined by automated N-terminal microsequencing. The protein consists of 123 residues with a corresponding molecular mass of 12,552 Da as determined by electrospray mass spectroscopy; the pI is 11.04. Homology studies reveal similarities to the eukaryotic ribosomal protein S8 fromHomo sapiens, Rattus norvegicus, Leishmania major, andSaccharomyces cerevisiae.
