Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) A structural constituent of ribosome. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including erythrocyte differentiation; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and ribosomal small subunit biogenesis. Located in mitochondrion. Part of cytosolic small ribosomal subunit. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in early conceptus; metanephros; and telencephalon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in chromosome 5q deletion syndrome. Orthologous to human RPS14 (ribosomal protein S14). PHENOTYPE: Conditional heterozygous knockout in hematopoietic cells leads to reduced protein synthesis, resulting in progressive anemia. [provided by MGI curators] |
