| UniProt functional annotation for P0CE47 | |||
| UniProt codes: P0CE47, P0A6N1. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli (strain K12). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | This protein promotes the GTP-dependent binding of aminoacyl- tRNA to the A-site of ribosomes during protein biosynthesis. | |
| Function: | May play an important regulatory role in cell growth and in the bacterial response to nutrient deprivation. | |
| Function: | Plays a stimulatory role in trans-translation; binds tmRNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15069072}. | |
| Function: | Protects glycyl-tRNA(Gly) from hydrolysis by E.coli D- aminoacyl-tRNA deacylase (dtd) (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5SHN6}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Upon infection by bacteriophage Qbeta, part of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase complex. With EF-Ts may provide a stabilizing scaffold for the beta (catalytic) subunit. Helps separate the double-stranded RNA of the template and growing RNA during elongation. With the beta subunit helps form the exit tunnel for template RNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:816798, ECO:0000305}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Required for the tRNase activity of CdiA-CT from E.coli strain EC869; the toxic CT module is thought to cleave tRNA in the context of translationally active GTP EF-Tu-aa-tRNA complexes. GTP is required for tRNase activity but is not hydrolyzed. CdiA-CT is the toxic component of a toxin-immunity protein module, which functions as a cellular contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) system. CDI modules allow bacteria to communicate with and inhibit the growth of closely related neighboring bacteria in a contact-dependent fashion (PubMed:28223500). EF-Tu interacts with at least 2 different toxic CT domains, the 2 toxins are different and degrade tRNA at different positions (PubMed:28973472, PubMed:28223500). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28223500, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28973472}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Required for the tRNase activity of CdiA-CT from E.coli strain NC101; the toxic CT module is thought to cleave tRNA in the context of translationally active GTP EF-Tu-aa-tRNA complexes. The toxin may remodel the EF-Tu-aa-tRNA complex to displace the 3'-end of the aa-tRNA so it can enter the toxin active site and be cleaved. GTP is required for tRNase activity but is not hydrolyzed. CdiA-CT is the toxic component of a toxin-immunity protein module, which functions as a cellular contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) system. CDI modules allow bacteria to communicate with and inhibit the growth of closely related neighboring bacteria in a contact-dependent fashion (PubMed:28223500). EF-Tu interacts with at least 2 different toxic CT domains, the 2 toxins are different and degrade tRNA at different positions (PubMed:28973472, PubMed:28223500). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28223500, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28973472}. | |

| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Upon infection by bacteriophage Qbeta, part of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase complex, the other subunits are the viral replicase catalytic subunit (AC P14647), host ribosomal protein S1 and EF-Ts (PubMed:816798). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:816798}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Forms a contact-dependent growth inhibition complex of EF-Tu, CdiA-CT-EC869 and CdiI-EC869 as well as a GTP, EF-Tu, CdiA-CT-EC869 complex. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28223500}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Forms a contact-dependent growth inhibition complex of CdiA-CT-NC101, CdiI-NC101 and EF-Tu; the complex is a dimer of heterotrimers. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28973472}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. Cell inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Note=Between 50-80% of the protein is associated with the cell inner membrane. Localization to the membrane has been suggested to follow nutrient stress. | |
