Ribonuclease III; Digests double-stranded RNA. Involved in the processing of primary rRNA transcript to yield the immediate precursors to the large and small rRNAs (23S and 16S). Processes some mRNAs, and tRNAs when they are encoded in the rRNA operon. Processes pre-crRNA and tracrRNA of type II CRISPR loci if present in the organism.

Ribosomal protein L19; This protein is located at the 30S-50S ribosomal subunit interface and may play a role in the structure and function of the aminoacyl-tRNA binding site.

Ribosomal protein L20; Binds directly to 23S ribosomal RNA and is necessary for the in vitro assembly process of the 50S ribosomal subunit. It is not involved in the protein synthesizing functions of that subunit.

Ribosomal protein L21; This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL21 family.

Ribosomal protein L32; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF01783; match to protein family HMM TIGR01031; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL32 family.

Ribosomal protein L17; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF01196; match to protein family HMM TIGR00059; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL17 family.

Ribosomal protein L2; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins. Required for association of the 30S and 50S subunits to form the 70S ribosome, for tRNA binding and peptide bond formation. It has been suggested to have peptidyltransferase activity; this is somewhat controversial. Makes several contacts with the 16S rRNA in the 70S ribosome. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL2 family.

Ribosomal protein L24; One of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit.

Ribosomal protein L15 amino region; Binds to the 23S rRNA; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL15 family.
