Rpl37a Gene Summary [Mouse]

A structural constituent of ribosome. Predicted to be involved in cytoplasmic translation; translation at postsynapse; and translation at presynapse. Located in cytoplasm. Part of cytosolic large ribosomal subunit. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in brain; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; and pancreas tip epithelium. Orthologous to several human genes including RPL37A (ribosomal protein L37a). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Rpl37a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
