Protein
Alternate 30S ribosomal protein S14
Organism
Bacillus subtilis (strain 168)
Function
Non-essential protein. A second form of S14, it can integrate into the 30S subunit where it partially compensates for loss of the major S14 protein (AC P12878) in restoring 70S formation, although it does not seem to be incorporated into the ribosome as well as the major S14.
Similarity
Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS14 family.
