Description
AI-generatedUnreviewed
The universal ribosomal protein uL10 family is involved in the structural and functional composition of the ribosome, specifically forming part of the ribosomal stalk. The ribosomal stalk is crucial for the interaction of the ribosome with GTP-bound translation factors during protein synthesis. Members of the uL10 family play a central role in recruiting these factors, which are essential for the translation process. The interaction with translation factors enhances the GTPase activity, which is necessary for the translocation step of protein elongation. The uL10 family proteins are functionally equivalent to the E.coli protein L10 and are a key component in the large ribosomal subunit, contributing to the peptidyl transferase center and the exit tunnel for nascent polypeptide chains.
