50S ribosomal protein L25 is a protein that in "Escherichia coli" is encoded by the rplY gene.
Function.
This ribosomal protein is a component of the 50S subunit. The protein binds 5S rRNA to form a stable complex. In turn 5S rRNA binds specifically to three proteins, L25, L18 and L5, forming a separate domain of the bacterial ribosome. Protein L25 of "E. coli" is not essential for survival of the cells.
Interactions.
Ribosomal protein L25 has been shown to interact with:
