Phenotypes of a mutant

  • essential PubMed
  • depletion confers a slow growth phenotype, and induces an abnormality of the in vivo ribosome profile, with an increased level of 45S precursors and a decreased level of 70S ribosomes PubMed
  • premature 45S particles accumulated in RbgA-depleted cells lack several proteins, including [rplP|search|L16], [rpmA|search|L27], [rpmB|search|L28], [rpmGA|search|L33], [rpmI|search|L35] and [rpmJ|search|L36] PubMed
  • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • proper positioning of [rplF|search|L6] in the large subunit of the ribosome prior to incorporation of [rplP|search|L16] PubMed
  • Binds and hydrolyzes GTP and readily exchanges GDP for GTP
  • Protein family

  • MTG1 subfamily (according to Swiss-Prot) Era/Obg family
  • Paralogous protein(s)

    Domains

  • RNA-binding domain at the C-terminus PubMed
  • Effectors of protein activity

  • GTPase activity requires binding of [rplP|search|L16] to the 50S subunit of the ribosome PubMed
  • binds ppGpp PubMed, ppGpp may inhibit activity PubMed
  • Structure

    Localization

  • cytoplasm (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • Interactions
