Ribosomes, the organelles that catalyze
protein synthesis, in eukaryotes, consist of a
small 40S subunit and a
large 60S subunit (whereas
prokaryotic ribosomes are 70
Svedberg units, composed of
50S and
30S subunits). They are located in the cytoplasm. Together these subunits are composed of four RNA species and approximately 80 structurally distinct proteins. This gene encodes a ribosomal protein that is a component of the eukaryotic 40S subunit. The protein belongs to the S7P family of ribosomal proteins. Variable expression of this gene in
colorectal cancers compared to adjacent normal tissues has been observed, although no correlation between the level of
expression and the severity of the disease has been found. As is typical for genes encoding ribosomal proteins, there are multiple processed
pseudogenes of this gene dispersed through the genome.[7]
