Abstract
Predictions of the secondary structures of the following 10 proteins from the large subunit of the E. coli ribosome were made using their known amino acid sequences: L6, L16, L19, L27, L28, L30, L31, L32, L33, and L34. The predictions were made according to 4 different methods and the results for each protein are presented as diagrams indicating the conformational states, helix, extended structure, turn, and random coil, of each residue. From these diagrams, regions of highly probable secondary structure for the proteins are calculated. Estimates are made of the maximum possible lengths of the proteins in order to correlate these with the results obtained from antibody binding sites in the 50S subunit as determined by electron microscopy.

The nucleotide sequence of the ribosomal protein gene rpsO (S15) and its flanking region were determined. The amino acid sequence of S15 protein deduced from the nucleotide sequence is in good agreement with the published amino acid sequence with one exception. The nucleotide sequence shows two prob
P1 transduction studies of a mutation of Escherichia coli affecting the rpsB gene previously suggested the map order popC-rpsB-dapD. Biochemical analysis of transductants has now revealed that the rpsB gene lies in fact to the right hand (tsJ) side of the dapD marker.
