40S ribosomal protein S23 is a
protein that in humans is encoded by the RPS23gene.[5][6]
Ribosomes, the
organelles that
catalyzeprotein 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 40S subunit. The protein belongs to the S12P family of ribosomal proteins. It is located in the
cytoplasm. The protein shares significant
amino acid similarity with
S. cerevisiae ribosomal protein S28. As is typical for genes encoding ribosomal proteins, there are multiple processed
pseudogenes of this gene dispersed through the genome.[6]
