GO:0006412
translation
|
IBA
GO_REF:0000033 |
ACCEPT |
Summary: Translation is the correct biological process for a chloroplast ribosomal protein.
Reason: The protein functions in the chloroplast ribosome and supports plastid translation.
Supporting Evidence:

IBA
GO_REF:0000033 |
KEEP AS NON CORE |
Summary: Ribosome is correct but less specific than chloroplast small ribosomal subunit.
Reason: Retain the generic ribosome annotation as non-core because the small-ribosomal-subunit term is more precise.
Supporting Evidence:

GO_REF:0000002 |
ACCEPT |
Summary: Structural constituent of ribosome is the core molecular function for a chloroplast ribosomal protein.
Reason: rps12-B is a conserved chloroplast small-subunit ribosomal protein.

chloroplast
|
IEA
GO_REF:0000120 |
ACCEPT |
Summary: Chloroplast localization is correct for this plastid-encoded ribosomal protein.
Reason: The UniProt entry places the protein in the chloroplast.

ACCEPT |
Summary: rps12-B is part of the chloroplast small ribosomal subunit.
Reason: The term correctly captures its ribosomal-complex context.

rRNA binding
|
IEA
GO_REF:0000104 |
ACCEPT |
Summary: rRNA binding is accepted as a UniProtKB-UniRule family annotation for chloroplast uS12/rps12 proteins.
Reason: The rps12-B entry lacks a protein-specific rRNA-contact statement, so this ACCEPT is explicitly rule-based rather than experimental for Populus.

Q: Are any Populus-specific plastid translation phenotypes associated with rps12-B perturbation beyond the conserved ribosomal role?
Experiment: Test chloroplast translation and small-ribosomal-subunit assembly in rps12-B perturbation lines.
Type: targeted functional assay
just fetch-gene POPTR rps12-B.Curated as chloroplast small ribosomal subunit protein uS12cy. Generic ribosome terms are retained as non-core where the small ribosomal subunit term is more specific; structural ribosome function, rRNA binding, chloroplast localization, and translation are core.
Addressed PR #469 review on 2026-05-10: replaced circular rRNA-binding support from the UniProt GO cross-reference with the independent UniProt subunit statement Part of the 30S ribosomal subunit.
Addressed PR #469 re-review on 2026-05-10: rRNA binding support now uses the UniProtKB-UniRule GO DR line and states explicitly that the ACCEPT is rule-based for the uS12 family, not a direct Populus rRNA-contact assay.
