S1_S28E: S28E, S1-like RNA-binding domain. S1-like RNA-binding domains are found in a wide variety of RNA-associated proteins. S28E protein is a component of the 30S ribosomal subunit. S28E is highly conserved among archaea and eukaryotes. S28E may control precursor RNA splicing and turnover in mRNA maturation process but its function in the ribosome is largely unknown. The structure contains an OB-fold found in many oligosaccharide and nucleic acid binding proteins. This implies that S28E might be involved in protein synthesis.
