Disease relevance of MRPL12

  • As no predisposition to colon cancer linked to this chromosomal region was hitherto reported, the MRPL12 gene might be involved in the process of differentiation of colonic epithelial cells [1].
 

High impact information on MRPL12

  • Polysome analysis showed that there was no significant translational control of mt translation factor (EF-Tumt, ribosomal proteins L7/L12mt and S12mt) mRNA expression during differentiation [2].
  • We have characterized a new delayed-early response mRNA encoding a 21-kDa product (MRPL12) that accumulates during the G1 phase of growth-stimulated cells [3].
  • The human MRPL12 protein is encoded by a unique gene located on chromosome 17 (q25-qter) [1].
  • We show here that MRPL12 mRNA expression is enhanced in growth-stimulated cells as a result of transcriptional activation, a feature lost in transformed cell lines [1].
