RPL21P44
Description
The RPL21P44 (ribosomal protein L21 pseudogene 44) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 4.
This gene encodes a protein that is a component of the 60S ribosomal subunit. Ribosomes, the organelles that catalyze protein synthesis, consist of a small 40S subunit and a large 60S subunit. Together these subunits bind mRNA and tRNA to synthesize proteins.
