BLD_1663 One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it helps nucleate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit by binding and bridging several RNA helices of the 16S rRNA (By similarity). 89 rpsO RS15_BIFLD Forms an intersubunit bridge (bridge B4) with the 23S rRNA of the 50S subunit in the ribosome (By similarity). 30S ribosomal protein S15 MALTAEEKQEIIAKYATHEGDTGSPEVQVALLSKRIADLTEHLKEHKHDHHSRRGMQLMIGDRRRLLDYLKRVDINRYRSLIERLGLRR
