Overview

Small ribosomal subunit protein uS15 (RPS13) is a structural component of the 40S subunit of the eukaryotic ribosome, encoded by the RPS13 gene in humans. It is located in the cytoplasm and part of the S15P ribosomal protein family. RPS13 participates in ribosome assembly, binds rRNA, and is essential for protein translation. Mutations or disturbances in RPS13 have been linked to disorders such as Diamond-Blackfan anemia. As a ubiquitous and essential structural protein, it is not considered a classical therapeutic target but is fundamental to basic cellular biology[1][2][6][7].
