NCIt definition : Human MRPL45 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 17q21.2 and is approximately
26 kb in length. This allele, which encodes 39S ribosomal protein L45, mitochondrial,
plays a role in the translation of mitochondrial RNA.;
NCIt note : An intrachromosomal translocation resulting in a fusion between the MLLT6 and MRPL45
genes may be associated with medulloblastoma. (Nature. 2012; 488:100-105.);
