关于 RPL13

功能概要

核糖体是催化蛋白质合成的细胞器，由一个小的 40S 亚基和一个大的 60S 亚基组成。这些亚基一起由 4 种 RNA 和大约 80 种结构不同的蛋白质组成。该基因编码的核糖体蛋白是 60S 亚基的一个组成部分。该蛋白属于核糖体蛋白 L13E 家族。它位于细胞质中。该基因在良性乳腺病变中的表达水平明显高于乳腺癌。已发现该基因编码不同亚型的可变剪接转录物变体。作为典型的编码核糖体蛋白的基因，该基因有多个经过处理的假基因分散在基因组中。[RefSeq 提供，2011 年 7 月]

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. This gene encodes a ribosomal protein that is a component of the 60S subunit. The protein belongs to the L13E family of ribosomal proteins. It is located in the cytoplasm. This gene is expressed at significantly higher levels in benign breast lesions than in breast carcinomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. As is typical for genes encoding ribosomal proteins, there are multiple processed pseudogenes of this gene dispersed through the genome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]
