Structural highlights
Function[RL34_THET8] Found on the solvent side of the large subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00391] [RS16_THET8] Binds to the lower part of the body of the 30S subunit, where it stabilizes two of its domains.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00385] [RL13_THET8] This protein is one of the early assembly proteins of the 50S ribosomal subunit, although it is not seen to bind rRNA by itself. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01366] [RL24_THET8] One of two assembly initiator proteins, it binds directly to the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA, where it nucleates assembly of the 50S subunit (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01326_B] One of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01326_B] [RL19_THET8] Contacts the 16S rRNA of the 30S subunit (part of bridge B6), connecting the 2 subunits.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00402] [RL3_THET8] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly near the 3'-end of the 23S rRNA, where it nucleates assembly of the 50S subunit (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01325_B] [RL21_THET8] This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20 (By similarity). Found on the solvent side of the large subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01363] [RL25_THET8] This is one of 3 proteins that mediate the attachment of the 5S rRNA onto the large ribosomal subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01334] [RL14_THET8] This protein binds directly to 23S ribosomal RNA (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01367] Contacts the 16S rRNA of the 30S subunit in two different positions helping to form bridges B5 and B8.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01367] [RL23_THET8] One of the early assembly proteins (By similarity) it binds 23S rRNA. One of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the ribosome. Forms the main docking site for trigger factor binding to the ribosome (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01369] [RL31_THET8] Binds the 23S rRNA (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00501] [RRF_THET8] Responsible for the release of ribosomes from messenger RNA at the termination of protein biosynthesis. May increase the efficiency of translation by recycling ribosomes from one round of translation to another (By similarity). [RL29_THET8] One of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00374] [RL4_THET8] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, this protein initially binds near the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. 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 (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01328_B] Forms part of the polypeptide exit tunnel (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01328_B] This protein can be incorporated into E.coli ribosomes in vivo, which resulted in decreased peptidyltransferase (Ptase) activity of the hybrid ribosomes. The hybrid 50S subunits associate less well with 30S subunits to form the ribosome.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01328_B] [RL22_THET8] This protein binds specifically to 23S rRNA; its binding is stimulated by other ribosomal proteins, e.g. L4, L17, and L20. 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 (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01331_B] The globular domain of the protein is one of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit, while an extended beta-hairpin is found that penetrates into the center of the 70S ribosome. This extension seems to form part of the wall of the exit tunnel.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01331_B] [RL15_THET8] Binds to the 23S rRNA (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01341_B] [RS6_THET8] Located on the outer edge of the platform on the body of the 30S subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00360] [RS9_THET2] Part of the top of the head of the 30S subunit. The C-terminal region penetrates the head emerging in the P-site where it contacts tRNA (By similarity). [RL16_THET8] This protein binds directly to 23S rRNA. Interacts with the A site tRNA.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01342] [RS8_THET8] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it helps nucleate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit central domain. The combined cluster of proteins S8, S12 and S17 appears to hold together the shoulder and platform of the 30S subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01302_B] [RL9_THET8] Binds to the 23S rRNA. Extends more that 50 Angstroms beyond the surface of the 70S ribosome.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00503] Publication Abstract from PubMedIn bacteria, disassembly of the ribosome at the end of translation is facilitated by an essential protein factor termed ribosome recycling factor (RRF), which works in concert with elongation factor G. Here we describe the crystal structure of the Thermus thermophilus RRF bound to a 70S ribosomal complex containing a stop codon in the A site, a transfer RNA anticodon stem-loop in the P site and tRNA(fMet) in the E site. The work demonstrates that structures of translation factors bound to 70S ribosomes can be determined at reasonably high resolution. Contrary to earlier reports, we did not observe any RRF-induced changes in bridges connecting the two subunits. This suggests that such changes are not a direct requirement for or consequence of RRF binding but possibly arise from the subsequent stabilization of a hybrid state of the ribosome.
