Rpl17 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables large ribosomal subunit rRNA binding activity. Involved in cellular response to amino acid starvation and positive regulation of G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle. Located in A band. Part of cytosolic large ribosomal subunit. Orthologous to human RPL17 (ribosomal protein L17). [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 rat Rpl17 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
