Disease relevance of RpS6

  • D.m. L27a is closely related to the mammalian protein that has been found differentially expressed in lung cancer tissues and therefore could be involved in the control of cell proliferation such as the ribosomal protein S6 [1].
  • However, in An. stephensi rpS6 the extension was approximately 70 amino acids longer than that in Ae. albopictus, and at the nucleotide level, it most closely resembled histone H1 proteins from the unicellular eukaryotes Leishmania and Chlamydomonas, and the bacterium Bordetella pertussis [2].

Associations of RpS6 with chemical compounds

  • Histone H1-like, lysine-rich low complexity amino acid extensions in mosquito ribosomal proteins RpL23a and RpS6 have evolved independently [13].
  • Finally, phosphopeptide mapping of individual phosphoderivatives, isolated from two-dimensional polyacrylamide gels, indicated that DS6A phosphorylation, in analogy to mammalian S6 phosphorylation, appears to proceed in an ordered fashion [14].
