关于 Rps27a

功能概要

The protein encoded by this gene is a fusion protein that contains ubiquitin at its N-terminus and ribosomal protein S27a at its C-terminus. When the human ortholog of this protein is expressed in yeast, it is processed post-translationally into two products, a free ubiquitin monomer and ribosomal protein S27a, a component of the 40S ribosomal subunit. There are multiple pseudogenes of this gene. There is a locus on chromosome 5 (GeneID:81777) that contains an intact copy of the open reading frame of this gene, that is likely to be the result of retrotransposition of an mRNA into the genome. The transcriptional status of this locus cannot be verified at the present time. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]
