CD Definition:
Ribosomal protein S15 (prokaryotic)_S13 (eukaryotic) binds the central domain of 16S rRNA and is required for assembly of the small ribosomal subunit and for intersubunit association, thus representing a key element in the assembly of the whole ribosome. S15 also plays an important autoregulatory role by binding and preventing its own mRNA from being translated. S15 has a predominantly alpha-helical fold that is highly structured except for the N-terminal alpha helix.
