MRPL41 Antibody (N-term)

NP_115866.1

Mammalian mitochondrial ribosomal proteins are encoded by
nuclear genes and help in protein synthesis within the
mitochondrion. Mitochondrial ribosomes (mitoribosomes) consist of a
small 28S subunit and a large 39S subunit. They have an estimated
75% protein to rRNA composition compared to prokaryotic ribosomes,
where this ratio is reversed. Another difference between mammalian
mitoribosomes and prokaryotic ribosomes is that the latter contain
a 5S rRNA. Among different species, the proteins comprising the
mitoribosome differ greatly in sequence, and sometimes in
biochemical properties, which prevents easy recognition by sequence
homology. This gene encodes a 39S subunit protein that belongs to
the YmL27 ribosomal protein family.
