Abstract excerpt
The ribosomal protein S7, a primary 16S rRNA-binding protein, plays an essential role in stabilizing the 3' major domain of 16S rRNA and also in feedback regulation of the str operon, as a translational repressor. We examined amino acid residues in ribosomal protein S7 from Bacillus stearothermophilus (BstS7) that are essential for 16S rRNA binding. Truncation of the N-terminal 10 residues of BstS7 abolished its...
