General annotation (Comments)

Function

This is one of the proteins that mediates the attachment of the 5S rRNA subcomplex onto the large ribosomal subunit where it forms part of the central protuberance. Binds stably to 5S rRNA; increases binding abilities of L5 in a cooperative fashion; both proteins together confer 23S rRNA binding. The 5S rRNA and some of its associated proteins might help stabilize positioning of ribosome-bound tRNAs. Ref.6

Subunit structure

Part of the 50S ribosomal subunit; part of the 5S rRNA/L5/L18/L25 subcomplex. Contacts the 5S and 23S rRNAs. Ref.9

Domain

The basic N-terminus is not necessary for binding to 5S rRNA. It is however required for cooperative binding of L5 and L18 to 5S rRNA as well as for binding of the 5S rRNA/L5/L18 complex to the 23S rRNA. HAMAP MF_01337

Post-translational modification

The protein has been shown to contain a phosphoserine, which was required for the protein to bind to 5S rRNA (Ref.11). However the presence of this phosphoserine is controversial, and it has not been seen by mass spectrometry. HAMAP MF_01337

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ribosomal protein L18P family.

Mass spectrometry

Molecular mass is 12769.8 Da from positions 1 - 117. Determined by MALDI. Ref.12
