High impact information on RpS3A

  • Thus, like other Minute loci, M(4)101 encodes a component of the protein synthesis machinery [1].
  • The C3 gene is located in section 101F of chromosome 4 [2].
  • The most prominent phenotype resulting from antisense depletion of C3 RNA is disappearance of the follicular cells of the ovary (where the concentration of C3 protein is normally high) and abnormalities of the associated germline derivatives, leading to failure of egg production [2].
  • A region of 13 kb harbours the regulatory regions of both ci and pan, transcribed in opposite directions, and a 1.1-kb gene encoding RpS3A [3].
