Rpl22 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables heparin binding activity. A structural constituent of ribosome. Involved in translation at presynapse. Acts upstream of or within alpha-beta T cell differentiation. Part of cytosolic large ribosomal subunit. Is active in glutamatergic synapse; presynapse; and ribosome. Is expressed in lung. Orthologous to human RPL22 (ribosomal protein L22).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Rpl22 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
