description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) A structural constituent of ribosome. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including exit from mitosis; nervous system development; and ribosomal large subunit assembly. Located in cytoplasm. Part of cytosolic large ribosomal subunit. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in embryo; metanephros; spleen; and thymus. Used to study optic atrophy. Orthologous to human RPL24 (ribosomal protein L24). PHENOTYPE: Heterozygous mutants have short kinked tail, ventral spotting, malocclusion, white feet, and anomalies of the spine and eyes; homozygotes die in utero. [provided by MGI curators] |
