RPL23AP87
Description
The RPL23AP87 (ribosomal protein L23a pseudogene 87) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 17.
This gene is a candidate for a tumor suppressor gene that may play a role in the regulation of cell growth and apoptosis. It is located within a fragile site on chromosome 17, which is often associated with cancer. The protein encoded by this gene has been shown to interact with the p53 tumor suppressor protein, and it may also interact with other proteins involved in cell cycle control. However, the exact function of this gene and its encoded protein are still under investigation.
