Rps28 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to be a structural constituent of ribosome. Predicted to be involved in cytoplasmic translation; maturation of SSU-rRNA; and ribosomal small subunit assembly. Part of cytosolic small ribosomal subunit. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Diamond-Blackfan anemia 15 with mandibulofacial dysostosis. Orthologous to human RPS28 (ribosomal protein S28).

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 Rps28 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
