See Template PBB Controls to Stop updates. PBB Summary section title summary text Ribosomes, the organelles that catalyze protein synthesis, consist of a small 40S subunit and a large 60S subunit. Together these subunits are composed of 4 RNA species and approximately 80 structurally distinct proteins. This gene encodes a ribosomal protein that is a component of the 60S subunit. The protein belongs to the L21E family of ribosomal proteins. It is located in the cytoplasm. As is typical for genes encoding ribosomal proteins, there are multiple processed pseudogenes of this gene dispersed through the genome. ref name entrez Clinical relevance Mutations in the RPL21 gene result in Hypertrichosis simplex of the scalp . ref name pmid21412954 cite journal pmid 21412954 doi 10.1002 humu.21503 title Mutation in ribosomal protein L21 underlies hereditary hypotrichosis simplex year 2011 month March author Zhou C author separator , author2 Zang D author3 Jin Y display authors 3 last4 Wu first4 Huafeng last5 Liu first5 Zhengyi last6 Du first6 Juan last7 Zhang first7 ... more details
