3iy8, resolution 14.10Å Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Structural highlights 3iy8 is a 10 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli K-12 and Leishmania tarentolae. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: Electron Microscopy, Resolution 14.1Å Experimental data: Check Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function RS5_ECOLI With S4 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy. Many suppressors of streptomycin-dependent mutants of protein S12 are found in this protein, some but not all of which decrease translational accuracy (ram, ribosomal ambiguity mutations). Located at the back of the 30S subunit body where it stabilizes the conformation of the head with respect to the body. The physical location of this protein suggests it may also play a role in mRNA unwinding by the ribosome, possibly by forming part of a processivity clamp.
