| UniProt functional annotation for Q5SLQ0 | |||
| UniProt code: Q5SLQ0. |
| Organism: | Thermus thermophilus (strain ATCC 27634 / DSM 579 / HB8). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Deinococcus-Thermus; Deinococci; Thermales; Thermaceae; Thermus. | |
| Function: | Located on the back of the platform of the 30S subunit where it stabilizes the close packing of several RNA helices of the 16S rRNA. Forms part of the Shine-Dalgarno cleft in the 70S ribosome, where it probably interacts with the Shine-Dalgarno helix. | |
| Subunit: | Part of the 30S ribosomal subunit. Forms a tight heterodimer with protein S6, also interacts with protein S11. Binds to the C- terminus of IF3 and to the central section of Era. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15866174}. | |
| Mass spectrometry: | Mass=10101; Method=MALDI; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:16287167}; | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bS18 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
