abbr. and gene symbol: RPS21. Ribosomal protein S21 is a structural component of the 40S subunit of ribosomes (40S ribosomal protein S21) (Kenmochi et al, 1998; Vladimirov et al, 1996). The gene encoding human ribosomal protein S21 has been cloned by Smirnova et al (2000) (for gene structure see also: Yoshihama et al, 2002). Bhat and Morrison (1993) have cloned a cDNA.
Role as moonlighting protein
Apart from its role as a structural component of the ribosome, ribosomal protein S21 appears to be a multifunctional protein and thus can be regarded as a member of a growing group of proteins referred to as moonlighting proteins.
