Rps23 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to be a structural constituent of ribosome. Predicted to be involved in ribosomal small subunit biogenesis; stress granule assembly; and translation. Part of cytosolic small ribosomal subunit. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in brachycephaly, trichomegaly, and developmental delay. Orthologous to human RPS23 (ribosomal protein S23).

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 rat Rps23 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
