1zo1, resolution 13.80Å Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Structural highlights 1zo1 is a 3 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: Electron Microscopy, Resolution 13.8Å Experimental data: Check Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function IF2_ECOLI One of the essential components for the initiation of protein synthesis. Protects formylmethionyl-tRNA from spontaneous hydrolysis and promotes its binding to the 30S ribosomal subunits. Also involved in the hydrolysis of GTP during the formation of the 70S ribosomal complex.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00100_B] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
