Target Information

Ribosomes, the organelles that catalyze protein 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 60S subunit and belongs to the L14E family of ribosomal proteins. It contains a basic region-leucine zipper (bZIP)-like domain and is located in the cytoplasm.

The gene contains a trinucleotide (GCT) repeat tract whose length is highly polymorphic, resulting in a stretch of alanine residues in the encoded protein. Transcript variants utilizing alternative polyA signals and alternative 5’-terminal exons exist but all encode the same protein. Multiple processed pseudogenes of this gene are dispersed throughout the genome.
