NCIt synonyms : MPS1; DBA17; MPS-1; S27; Ribosomal Protein S27 wt Allele; Ribosomal Protein S27 (Metallopanstimulin 1) Gene;
NCIt definition : Human RPS27 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 1q21 and is approximately
1 kb in length. This allele, which encodes 40S ribosomal protein S27, plays a role
in the regulation of protein synthesis.;
NCIt note : Ribosomes, the organelles that catalyze protein synthesis, consist of a small 40S
subunit and a large 60S subunit. Together these subunits are composed of 4 RNA species
and approximately 80 structurally distinct proteins. The RPS27 gene encodes a ribosomal
protein that is a component of the 40S subunit. (Entrez Gene);
