Ribosomal interacting GTPase YjeQ/EngC, a circularly permuted subfamily of the Ras GTPases. YjeQ (YloQ in Bacillus subtilis) is a ribosomal small subunit-dependent GTPase; hence also known as RsgA. YjeQ is a late-stage ribosomal biogenesis factor involved in the 30S subunit maturation, and it represents a protein family whose members are broadly conserved in bacteria and have been shown to be essential to the growth of E. coli and B. subtilis. Proteins of the YjeQ family contain all sequence motifs typical of the vast class of P-loop-containing GTPases, but show a circular permutation, with a G4-G1-G3 pattern of motifs as opposed to the regular G1-G3-G4 pattern seen in most GTPases. All YjeQ family proteins display a unique domain architecture, which includes an N-terminal OB-fold RNA-binding domain, the central permuted GTPase domain, and a zinc knuckle-like C-terminal cysteine domain.
