60S is the large ribosomal subunit in eukaryotes. It corresponds to 50S

50S

50S is the larger subunit of the 70S ribosome of prokaryotes. It is the site of inhibition for antibiotics such as macrolides, chloramphenicol, clindamycin, and the pleuromutilins. It includes the subunits 5S and 23S.-Structure:...

Prokaryote

The prokaryotes are a group of organisms that lack a cell nucleus , or any other membrane-bound organelles. The organisms that have a cell nucleus are called eukaryotes. Most prokaryotes are unicellular, but a few such as myxobacteria have multicellular stages in their life cycles...

5S ribosomal RNA
5S ribosomal RNA is a component of the large ribosomal subunit in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes .Eukaryotic 5S rRNA is synthesised by RNA polymerase III, whereas most other eukaroytic rRNAs are cleaved from a 45S precursor transcribed by RNA polymerase I...
