FUNCTION: One of the early assembly proteins it binds 23S rRNA. One of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the ribosome. Forms the main docking site for trigger factor binding to the ribosome (By similarity).

SUBUNIT: Part of the 50S ribosomal subunit. Contacts protein L29, and trigger factor when it is bound to the ribosome (By similarity).

FUNCTION: Binds to 23S rRNA. One of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the ribosome (By similarity).

SUBUNIT: Part of the 50S ribosomal subunit. Contacts protein L29 (By similarity).

FUNCTION: Binds to 23S rRNA (By similarity).

SUBUNIT: Part of the 50S ribosomal subunit (By similarity).

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Plastid, chloroplast.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ribosomal protein L23P family.

Comments:	Some of the Mycoplasma are fused with unknown domains. Usually encoded in plastid genomes, in spinach the bacterial ortholog has been replaced by the 80S cytosolic ortholog. The plastid-encoded gene is a pseudogene in the Caryophyllales and in EPIVI.
