Ribosomal protein database of Listeria aquatica

This work presents the ribosomal
protein database of Listeria aquatica. 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.
