The S4 domain is a small domain consisting of 60-65 amino acid residues that was detected in the bacterial ribosomal protein S4, eukaryotic ribosomal S9, two families of pseudouridine synthases, a novel family of predicted RNA methylases, a yeast protein containing a pseudouridine synthetase and a deaminase domain, bacterial tyrosyl-tRNA synthetases, and a number of uncharacterized, small proteins that may be involved in translation regulation [1]. The S4 domain probably mediates binding to RNA.

This entry represents ribosomal protein aS21, an archaea-specific component of the small ribosomal subunit (SSU). The protein was first characterised as HVO_2753 (Small CPxCG-related zinc finger protein) from Haloferax volcanii [1] and has been identified in ribosome structures from Pyrococcus abyssi [3] and Pyrobaculum calidifontis [4], where it is located at a position corresponding to eS21 in eukaryotic ribosomes. NMR 3D structure analysis revealed four C(P)XCG motifs, suggesting the presence of two zinc-binding pockets (ZBPs). While some members of this entry bind two zinc ions [2], in HVO_2753, only C(P)XCG motifs 2 and 4 (comprising Cys-32 to Cys-35 and Cys-50 to Cys-53) form a ZBP and bind one zinc atom, while C(P)XCG motifs 1 and 3 (comprising Cys-12 to Cys-15 and Cys-39 to Cys-42) form a four-Cys cluster that do not bind zinc. The four C(P)XCG motifs are critical for protein stability, folding and functionality [1]. Despite structural topology resembling eukaryotic eS21, sequence identities in the structurally superimposed regions are limited, and the archaeal protein contains two zinc knuckles not observed in the eukaryotic version [3]. The widespread conservation of this protein in archaeal genomes supports its role as a core ribosomal component [3,4].

This family contains a central domain Pfam:PF00013, hence the amino and carboxyl terminal domains are stored separately. This is a minimal carboxyl-terminal domain. Some are much longer.

This family of ribosomal proteins consists mainly of the 40S ribosomal protein S27a which is synthesised as a C-terminal extension of ubiquitin (CEP). The S27a domain compromises the C-terminal half of the protein. The synthesis of ribosomal proteins as extensions of ubiquitin promotes their incorporation into nascent ribosomes by a transient metabolic stabilisation and is required for efficient ribosome biogenesis [3]. The ribosomal extension protein S27a contains a basic region that is proposed to form a zinc finger; its fusion gene is proposed as a mechanism to maintain a fixed ratio between ubiquitin necessary for degrading proteins and ribosomes a source of proteins [2].
