Full name: ribosomal protein L7

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: Rpl7a; Surf-3

Summary: Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and nucleic acid binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of ribosome. Predicted to be involved in maturation of LSU-rRNA from tricistronic rRNA transcript (SSU-rRNA, 5.8S rRNA, LSU-rRNA). Predicted to act upstream of or within translation. Located in synapse. Part of cytosolic large ribosomal subunit and polysome. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; early conceptus; female reproductive system; and liver. Orthologous to human RPL7 (ribosomal protein L7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
