Comments [?]

case <OC:Escherichia> or <OC:Shigella> or <OC:Salmonella>
Function Is an L-glutamate ligase that catalyzes the ATP-dependent post-translational addition of glutamate residues to the C-terminus of ribosomal protein S6 (RpsF). Is also able to catalyze the synthesis of poly-alpha-glutamate in vitro, via ATP hydrolysis from unprotected glutamate as substrate. The number of glutamate residues added to either RpsF or to poly-alpha-glutamate changes with pH.
end case
case <FTGroup:1>
Cofactor Mg(2+)
Mn(2+)
Note: Binds 2 magnesium or manganese ions per subunit.
end case
Similarity Belongs to the RimK family.

Comments The ribosomal protein S6-modifying function does not apply to all RimK family members since some bacteria do not possess a rpsF gene in their genome or the C-terminal sequence of RpsF is not conserved or does not end with a glutamate residue.
