Correlation of 30S ribosomal proteins of Escherichia coli fractionated on carboxymethyl-cellulose column chromatography to the standard nomenclature.

The nomenclature proposed by Otaka et al. (1968) for the 30S ribosomal protein components of Escherichia coli as separated by carboxymethyl(CM)-cellulose column chromatography was adopted in several papers in which the genetic loci for many 30S ribosomal proteins on the E. coli chromosome were determined. In order to compare these data with those obtained in other laboratories, the 30S ribosomal proteins fractionated by CM-cellulose chromatography were correlated with thestandard nomenclature proposed by Wittmann et al. (1971).
