Function
RS8_ECOLI One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA central domain where it helps coordinate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01302_B] Protein S8 is a translational repressor protein, it controls the translation of the spc operon by binding to its mRNA.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01302_B]
