The primary structure of rat ribosomal protein L19. A determination from the sequence of nucleotides in a cDNA and from the sequence of amino acids in the protein.

The covalent structure of rat ribosomal protein L19 was inferred from the sequence of nucleotides in a recombinant cDNA and confirmed from the sequence of amino acids in a portion of the protein. Ribosomal protein L19 contains 196 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 26,971. There are indications that a segment of 23 residues in rat L19 is related to sequences of the same length in Escherichia coli ribosomal proteins L30, L18, and S2.
