The reference OMIM entry for this protein is 603674

Ribosomal protein s15a; rps15a

The mammalian ribosome is composed of 4 RNA species (see 180450) and approximately 80 different proteins. The deduced ribosomal protein 15a (RPS15A) has 130 amino acids (SWISS-PROT SWISSPROT P39027). By somatic cell hybrid and radiation hybrid mapping analyses, Kenmochi et al. (1998) mapped the human RPS15A gene to 16p. ... More on the omim web site
