| UniProt functional annotation for P0A7W7 | |||
| UniProt codes: P0A7W7, P02361. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli (strain K12). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA central domain where it helps coordinate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Function: | Protein S8 is a translational repressor protein, it controls the translation of the spc operon by binding to its mRNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:6262737}. | |
| Subunit: | Part of the 30S ribosomal subunit (PubMed:365698, PubMed:10094780, PubMed:12809609, PubMed:16272117, PubMed:27934701, PubMed:12244297, PubMed:27906160, PubMed:27906161, PubMed:28077875). Contacts proteins S5 and S12 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5SHQ2, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10094780, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12244297, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12809609, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16272117, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27906160, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27906161, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27934701, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28077875, ECO:0000269|PubMed:365698}. | |
| Mass spectrometry: | Mass=13993.2; Method=MALDI; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:10094780}; | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS8 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
