Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL34 family.
Belongs to the site-specific recombinase resolvase family.
Lacks conserved residue(s) required for the propagation of feature annotation.
This protein specifically catalyzes the removal of signal peptides from prolipoproteins.
Involved in mercury resistance. Acts as a mercury scavenger that specifically binds to a mercuric ion in the periplasm and probably passes it to the cytoplasmic mercuric reductase MerA via the mercuric transport protein MerT.
Component of the 30S ribosomal translation pre-initiation complex which assembles on the 30S ribosome in the order IF-2 and IF-3, IF-1 and N-formylmethionyl-tRNA(fMet); mRNA recruitment can occur at any time during PIC assembly.
One of the essential components for the initiation of protein synthesis. Stabilizes the binding of IF-2 and IF-3 on the 30S subunit to which N-formylmethionyl-tRNA(fMet) subsequently binds. Helps modulate mRNA selection, yielding the 30S pre-initiation complex (PIC). Upon addition of the 50S ribosomal subunit IF-1, IF-2 and IF-3 are released leaving the mature 70S translation initiation complex.
Mediates the mercuric-dependent induction of mercury resistance operon. In the absence of mercury MerR represses transcription by binding tightly to the mer operator region; when mercury is present the dimeric complex binds a single ion and becomes a potent transcriptional activator, while remaining bound to the mer site.
Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL36 family.
