UniProt functional annotation for P06508

UniProt code: P06508.

Organism: Spinacia oleracea (Spinach).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; Caryophyllales; Chenopodiaceae; Chenopodioideae; Anserineae; Spinacia.
 
Function: Component of the chloroplast ribosome (chloro-ribosome), a dedicated translation machinery responsible for the synthesis of chloroplast genome-encoded proteins, including proteins of the transcription and translation machinery and components of the photosynthetic apparatus. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:10874039, ECO:0000305|PubMed:28007896}.
 
Subunit: Component of the chloroplast small ribosomal subunit (SSU). Mature 70S chloroplast ribosomes of higher plants consist of a small (30S) and a large (50S) subunit. The 30S small subunit contains 1 molecule of ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) and 24 different proteins. The 50S large subunit contains 3 rRNA molecules (23S, 5S and 4.5S rRNA) and 33 different proteins (PubMed:10874039, PubMed:28007896). uS19c binds directly to 16S ribosomal RNA (PubMed:10874039). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10874039, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28007896}.
Subcellular location: Plastid, chloroplast {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10874039, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28007896}.
Mass spectrometry: Mass=10477.0; Method=Electrospray; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:10874039};
Mass spectrometry: Mass=10495; Method=MALDI; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:10874039};
Miscellaneous: S19 alpha and beta forms differ in pI. S19 beta form is the minor least basic form. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10874039}.
Similarity: Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS19 family. {ECO:0000305}.
