description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) A structural constituent of ribosome. Involved in cytoplasmic translation and spermatogenesis. Part of cytosolic large ribosomal subunit. Is expressed in 2-cell stage embryo; 4-cell stage embryo; forelimb; and humerus cartilage condensation. Orthologous to human RPL39L (ribosomal protein L39 like).
