Ribosomal Proteins
These proteins play crucial roles in ribosome structure, assembly, and function, contributing to the efficient translation of genetic information into functional proteins.
Ribosomal Proteins exhibit a wide range of molecular weights and structures, and are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.
Understanding the properties and functions of Ribosomal Proteins is crucial for advancing research in areas such as cell biology, genetics, and molecular biology.
Leveraging the power of AI-driven platforms like PubCompare.ai can help researchers easily locate the best protocols, products, and methodologies for their Ribosomal Protein studies, taking their research to new heights.

The collection of prokaryotic genomes available at NCBI is growing exponentially and shows no signs of abating: as of January 2016 NCBI's assembly resource contains 57 890 genome assemblies representing 8047 species (see genome browser
In PGAP we define the pan-genome of a clade at a species or higher level (17 ). To be included as a core gene for a species-level pan-genome, we require the gene to be present in the vast majority—at least 80%—of all genomes in the clade. A set of core genes gives rise to a set of core proteins. We show in Figure
The notion of the pan-genome can be generalized beyond a species level and applies, in fact, to any taxonomy level (from genus to phylum to kingdom). Notably, in the pan-genomes of Archaea and Bacteria, the universally conserved ribosomal genes make a group of core genes. The main practical value of the pan-genome approach is in formulating an efficient framework for comparative analysis of large groups of closely related organisms separated by small evolutionary distances as defined by ribosomal protein markers (20 (link),21 (link)).

The functional activity of compounds was determined in a cell line where p70S6K is constitutively activated. Test article was dissolved in DMSO to make a 10 μM stock. PathScan® Phospho-S6 Ribosomal Protein (Ser235/236) Sandwich ELISA Kit was purchased from Cell Signaling Technology. A549 lung cancer cell line, was purchased from American Type Culture Collection. A549 cells were grown in F-12K Medium supplemented with 10% FBS. 100 μg/mL penicillin and 100 μg/mL streptomycin were added to the culture media. Cultures were maintained at 37° C. in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 and 95% air. 2.0×105 cells were seeded in each well of 12-well tissue culture plates for overnight. Cells were treated with DMSO or test article (starting at 100 μM, 10-dose with 3 fold dilution) for 3 hours. The cells were washed once with ice cold PBS and lysed with 1× cell lysis buffer. Cell lysates were collected and samples were added to the appropriate wells of the ELISA plate. Plate was incubated for overnight at 4° C. 100 μL of reconstituted Phospho-S6 Ribosomal Protein (Ser235/236) Detection Antibody was added to each well and the plate was incubated at 37° C. for 1 hour. Wells were washed and 100 μl of reconstituted HRP-Linked secondary antibody was added to each well. The plate was incubated for 30 minutes at 37° C. Wash procedure was repeated and 100 μL of TMB Substrate was added to each well. The plate was incubated for 10 minutes at 37° C. 100 μL of STOP Solution was added to each well and the absorbance was read at 460 nm using Envision 2104 Multilabel Reader (PerkinElmer, Santa Clara, CA). IC50 curves were plotted and IC50 values were calculated using the GraphPad Prism 4 program based on a sigmoidal dose-response equation.
Unless otherwise noted, compounds that were tested had an IC50 of less than 50 μM in the S6K Binding assay. A=less than 0.05 μM; B=greater than 0.05 μM and less than 0.5 μM; C=greater than 0.5 μM and less than 10 μM;

The expression of each erbb3b gene and the two housekeeping genes (rpl7 and rpl32) was obtained by RT-qPCR at 65°C (PrimeScript transcriptase, Takara, SYBRgreen) and normalized with the Pfaffle equation (Ståhlberg et al. 2004 (link)):
where RE is the relative expression, E(x) is the efficiency of the amplification for isoform x, and Ct(x) is the quantification cycle of gene x.
