| UniProt functional annotation for Q8U017 | |||
| UniProt code: Q8U017. |
| Organism: | Pyrococcus furiosus (strain ATCC 43587 / DSM 3638 / JCM 8422 / Vc1). | |
| Taxonomy: | Archaea; Euryarchaeota; Thermococci; Thermococcales; Thermococcaceae; Pyrococcus. | |
| Function: | With S4 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01307}. | |
| Subunit: | Part of the 30S ribosomal subunit (PubMed:23222135). Contacts protein S4 (By similarity). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01307, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23222135}. | |
| Domain: | The N-terminal domain interacts with the head of the 30S subunit; the C-terminal domain interacts with the body and contacts protein S4. The interaction surface between S4 and S5 is involved in control of translational fidelity. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS5 family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01307}. | |
