| UniProt functional annotation for P29396 | |||
| UniProt code: P29396. |
| Organism: | Thermotoga maritima (strain ATCC 43589 / DSM 3109 / JCM 10099 / NBRC 100826 / MSB8). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Thermotogae; Thermotogales; Thermotogaceae; Thermotoga. | |
| Function: | Forms part of the ribosomal stalk which helps the ribosome interact with GTP-bound translation factors. Is thus essential for accurate translation. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. Part of the 50S ribosomal subunit; present in 6 copies per ribosome. Forms part of the ribosomal stalk which helps the ribosome interact with GTP-bound translation factors. Forms a heptameric L10(L12)2(L12)2(L12)2 complex, where L10 forms an elongated spine to which 3 L12 dimers bind in a sequential fashion. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15923259, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15989950}. | |
| Mass spectrometry: | Mass=101376; Mass_error=8; Method=Electrospray; Note=Isolated L10(L12)6.; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:15923259}; | |
| Mass spectrometry: | Mass=13477; Mass_error=2; Method=Electrospray; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:15923259}; | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL12 family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00368}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAD35540.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Extended N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
