Description

IPR036838 is a Small ribosomal subunit protein uS10 domain superfamily.

<p>Structurally, the small ribosomal subunit protein uS10 domain has a ferredoxin-like fold, which consists of an α+β sandwich with antiparallel β-sheet.</p> <p>Evidence suggests that, in prokaryotes, the peptidyl transferase reaction is performed by the large subunit 23S rRNA, whereas proteins probably have a greater role in eukaryotic ribosomes. Most of the proteins lie close to, or on the surface of, the 30S subunit, arranged peripherally around the rRNA [[cite:PUB00003381]]. The small subunit ribosomal proteins can be categorised as primary binding proteins, which bind directly and independently to 16S rRNA; secondary binding proteins, which display no specific affinity for 16S rRNA, but its assembly is contingent upon the presence of one or more primary binding proteins; and tertiary binding proteins, which require the presence of one or more secondary binding proteins and sometimes other tertiary binding proteins.</p> <p>The small ribosomal subunit protein uS10 consists of about 100 amino acid residues. In Escherichia coli, uS10 is involved in binding tRNA to the ribosome, and also operates as a transcriptional elongation factor [[cite:PUB00003326]]. Experimental evidence [[cite:PUB00004907]] has revealed that uS10 has virtually no groups exposed on the ribosomal surface, and is one of the "split proteins": these are a discrete group that are selectively removed from 30S subunits under low salt conditions and are required for the formation of activated 30S reconstitution intermediate (RI*) particles. uS10 belongs to a family of proteins [[cite:PUB00005065]] that includes: bacteria uS10; algal chloroplast uS10c; cyanelle uS10; archaebacterial uS10; Marchantia polymorpha and Prototheca wickerhamii mitochondrial S10; Arabidopsis thaliana mitochondrial uS10m (nuclear encoded); vertebrate uS10 (also known as S20); plant u S10 (also known as S20); and yeast uS10 (URP2).</p>
