| UniProt functional annotation for P61992 | |||
| UniProt code: P61992. |
| Organism: | Pyrococcus abyssi (strain GE5 / Orsay). | |
| Taxonomy: | Archaea; Euryarchaeota; Thermococci; Thermococcales; Thermococcaceae; Pyrococcus. | |
| Function: | One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the body of the 30S subunit. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01306}. | |
| Function: | With S5 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01306}. | |
| Subunit: | Part of the 30S ribosomal subunit. Contacts protein S5. The interaction surface between S4 and S5 is involved in control of translational fidelity. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01306}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS4 family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01306}. | |
