Ribosomal protein database of Staphylococcus epidermidis

This work presents the ribosomal
protein database of Staphylococcus epidermidis. Original data for the
work came from the annotated proteome data of the bacterium downloaded from
UniProt. Using an in-house MATLAB ribosomal protein database analysis software,
the original proteome data file was parsed to extract protein name and amino
acid sequence of all ribosomal proteins in the species. The database also
includes calculated variables such as number of residues, molecular weight, and
nucleotide sequence. Overall, the presented database could serve as a ribosomal
protein mass fingerprint for use in microbial identification, or it could be
used in fundamental studies seeking to uncover new insights into ribosomal
protein biology.
