An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Large ribosomal subunit protein uL24 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RPL26 gene.[1][2]

Function

Cytosolic ribosomes, organelles that catalyze protein synthesis, consist of a small 40S subunit and a large 60S subunit. Together these subunits are composed of 4 rRNA 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 universal ribosomal protein uL24 family. It is located in the cytoplasm. As is typical for genes encoding ribosomal proteins, there are multiple processed pseudogenes of this gene dispersed through the genome and the human paralog RPL26L1.[2]

Interactions

RPL26 has been shown to interact with Mdm2.[3]
