== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/HFQ_PSEAE HFQ_PSEAE] RNA chaperone that binds small regulatory RNA (sRNAs) and mRNAs to facilitate mRNA translational regulation in response to envelope stress, environmental stress and changes in metabolite concentrations. Also binds with high specificity to tRNAs (By similarity).

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Hfq is a thermostable RNA-binding bacterial protein that forms a uniquely shaped homohexamer. Based on sequence and structural similarity, Hfq belongs to the like-Sm (LSm) protein family. In spite of a rather high degree of homology between archaeal and eukaryotic LSm proteins, their quaternary structure is different, usually consisting of five to eight monomers. In this work, the importance of conserved intersubunit hydrogen bonds for the Hfq spatial organization was tested. The structures and stabilities for the Gln8Ala, Asn28Ala, Asp40Ala, and Tyr55Ala Hfq mutants were determined. All these proteins have the same hexamer organization, but their stability is different. Elimination of a single intersubunit hydrogen bond due to Gln8Ala, Asp40Ala, and Tyr55Ala substitutions results in decreased stability of the Hfq hexamer. Tyr55Ala Hfq as well as the earlier studied His57Ala Hfq has reduced protein thermostability, which seems to correspond to an opening of the protein hydrophobic core.
