Structural highlights
Function[Q5SM23_THET8] An essential GTPase that binds both GDP and GTP, with rapid nucleotide exchange. Plays a role in 16S rRNA processing and 30S ribosomal subunit biogenesis and possibly also in cell cycle regulation and energy metabolism (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00367] The Era binding site on the 30S subunit overlaps that of protein S1 and is in direct contact with 5 nucleotides directly upstream of the anti-Shine-Dalgarno sequence; the presence of Era may prevent mRNA recruitment. 30S subunits bound to Era are not able to bind to the 50S subunit to make functional ribosomes. Era may serve a role in the final stages of 30S ribosomal subunit assembly.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00367] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
