Crystal structure of antimicrobial peptide Bac7(1-19) bound to the Thermus thermophilus 70S ribosomeCrystal structure of antimicrobial peptide Bac7(1-19) bound to the Thermus thermophilus 70S ribosome
Structural highlights
FunctionRL5_THET8 This is 1 of the proteins that binds and probably mediates the attachment of the 5S RNA into the large ribosomal subunit, where it forms part of the central protuberance. In the 70S ribosome it contacts protein S13 of the 30S subunit (forming bridge B1b) connecting the head of the 30S subunit to the top of the 50S subunit. The bridge itself contacts the P site tRNA and is implicated in movement during ribosome translocation. Also contacts the P site tRNA independently of the intersubunit bridge; the 5S rRNA and some of its associated proteins might help stabilize positioning of ribosome-bound tRNAs.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01333_B] See Also |
