Abstract
Here we report the synthesis of the N‐terminal hexapeptide H‐Pro‐Arg‐Arg‐Arg‐Val‐Ile‐OH of the E. coli ribosomal protein S7, the C‐terminal hexapeptide H‐Lys‐Glu‐Ala‐Lys‐Lys‐Lys‐OH of L6 and the C‐terminal hexapeptide H‐Pro‐Gln‐Val‐Leu‐Asp‐Ile‐OH of L13. All peptides were prepared by SPPS following the Fmoc‐strategy, using DIC/HOBt and/or HBTU as coupling reagents and 2‐chlorotrityl chloride resin as the solid support. The carrier linked synthetic peptides were injected into rabbits and elicited an anti‐peptide response. These anti‐hexapeptide antibodies were found to recognize the corresponding peptides and proteins. Copyright © 2002 European Peptide Society and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The genes for the ribosomal proteins $9 (rpsI) and L13 (rplM) of Escherichia coli have been cloned into a 2 phage vector termed L47.1. The two genes were identified by infecting UV-light irradiated cells with the resultant phages and analyzing the protein products by two-dimensional gel electrophore
The rplY gene of Escherichia coli K12 encoding ribosomal protein L25 was cloned from the ordered clone bank and located at coordinate 2,291 kb on the physical map of E. coli. Determination of the nucleotide sequence indicated that the coding region contains 285 nucleotide pairs including a translati
On page 282, left column, the sentence beginning on line 23 should read : "Consequently, our data suggest that protein $9 consists of 129 amino acid residues as opposed to the 128 residues reported by Chen and Wittmann-Liebold (1975).
