Ribosomal protein l23; rpl23

DESCRIPTION

The mammalian ribosome is composed of 4 RNA species (see 180450) and approximately 80 different proteins, including RPL23 (Kenmochi et al., 1998).

CLONING

By differential screening of a human lymphocyte cDNA library with probes derived from actively dividing or quiescent quail neuroretina cells, Herault et al. (1991) isolated cDNAs encoding ribosomal protein L23 (RPL23), which they called rpL17. The deduced 140-amino acid human RPL23 protein is 78% identical to yeast ribosomal protein L17. Berchtold and Berger (1991) isolated a human brain RPL23 cDNA using PCR. Northern blot analysis detected a 600-bp RPL23 transcript in all human tissues examined.

GENE FUNCTION

Impeding ribosomal biogenesis generates ribosomal stress that activates p53 (TP53; 191170) to stop cell growth. Dai et al. (2006) stated that the ribosomal proteins L5 (RPL5; 603634), L11 (RPL11; 604175), and L23 interact with MDM2 (164785) and inhibit MDM2-mediated p53 ubiquitination and degradation in response to ribosomal stress. They found that L5 and L23 inhibited ubiquitination of both p53 and MDM2 in human cell lines. In contrast, L11 inhibited proteasome-mediated degradation of ubiquitinated MDM2, but not p53, resulting in stabilization of p53.

MAPPING

Kenmochi et al. (1998) mapped the RPL23 gene to 17q using somatic cell hybrid and radiation hybrid mapping analyses. Berchtold and Berger (1991) reported that the human genome contains at least 5 copies of the RPL23 gene, some of which might be pseudogenes. ... More on the omim web site
