It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly. It makes multiple contacts with different domains of the 23S rRNA in the assembled 50S subunit and ribosome. Protein L4 is a both a transcriptional repressor and a translational repressor protein; these two functions are independent of each other. It regulates transcription of the S10 operon (to which L4 belongs) by causing premature termination of transcription within the S10 leader; termination absolutely requires the NusA protein. L4 controls the translation of the S10 operon by binding to its mRNA. The regions of L4 that control regulation (residues 131-210) are different from those required for ribosome assembly (residues 89-103). Forms part of the polypeptide exit tunnel. Can regulate expression from Citrobacter freundii, Haemophilus influenzae, Morganella morganii, Salmonella typhimurium, Serratia marcescens, Vibrio cholerae and Yersinia enterocolitica (but not Pseudomonas aeruginosa) S10 leaders in vitro. Publication Abstract from PubMed Ribosomes consist of many small proteins and few large RNA molecules. Both components are necessary for ribosome functioning during translation. According to widely accepted view, bacterial ribosomes contain always the same complement of ribosomal proteins. Comparative bacterial genomics data indicates that several ribosomal proteins are encoded by multiple paralogous genes suggesting structural heterogeneity of ribosomes. In E. coli, two r-proteins bL31 and bL36 are encoded by two genes: rpmE and ykgM encode bL31 protein paralogs bL31A and bL31B, and rpmJ and ykgO encode bL36 protein paralogs bL36A and bL36B respectively. We have found several similarities and differences between ribosomes of exponential and stationary growth phases by using quantitative mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. First, composition of ribosome associating proteins changes profoundly as cells transition from exponential to stationary growth phase. Ribosomal core proteins bL31A and bL36A are replaced by bL31B and bL36B, respectively. Second, our X-ray structure of the 70S ribosome demonstrates that bL31B and bL36B proteins have similar ribosome binding sites to their A counterparts. Third, ribosome subpopulations containing A or B paralogs existed simultaneously demonstrating that E. coli ribosomes are heterogeneous with respect to their paralogous ribosomal protein composition that changes via protein exchange.
