Proteins of the small subunit
Proteins that are part of the ribosome only under specific conditions
- Ctc: present in the large subunit under stress conditions
- RpmGC: replaces L33 under conditions of zinc limitation
- YbxF: L7 family, associated to the ribosome during logarithmic growth
- YhzA: replaces L31 under conditions of zinc limitation
- YtiA: replaces S14 under conditions of zinc limitation
