Ribosomal protein l39; rpl39

CLONING

Ribosomes, the site of protein synthesis in the cell, are composed of 4 ribosomal RNA species (see 180450) and approximately 80 ribosomal proteins. Otsuka et al. (1996) cloned the RPL39 gene, the human gene encoding the L39 ribosomal protein, by random cDNA sequencing of a colon carcinoma cDNA library. The gene encodes a 51-amino acid polypeptide. Northern blot analysis revealed ubiquitous expression of the RPL39 transcript. Although the level of RPL39 mRNA varied in several cell lines, including carcinoma cell lines, its level was not cell cycle dependent in fibroblasts. Tsui et al. (1996) isolated a human heart cDNA encoding RPL39. The deduced RPL39 protein has 20 basic residues but no acidic ones; its calculated isoelectric point is 13.05. The predicted human and rat RPL39 proteins are identical.

MAPPING

By somatic cell hybrid and radiation hybrid analyses, Uechi et al. (2001) mapped the RPL39 gene to chromosome Xq22. Gross (2013) mapped the RPL39 gene to chromosome Xq24 based on an alignment of the RPL39 sequence (GenBank GENBANK AB061835) with the genomic sequence (GRCh37). ... More on the omim web site
