Disease relevance of rps12

Their sequence implies a protein product composed of 140 amino acids, which exhibits considerable sequence similarity to ribosomal protein S12 from both Euglena gracilis chloroplasts and E. coli [1].
The complete amino acid sequence of ribosomal protein S12 from Bacillus stearothermophilus [2].

High impact information on rps12

The rps 12 and rps 7 genes, contrary to the tuf A gene, are not split [3].
A few overlaps of tryptic peptides were established by DNA sequence analysis of a chromosomal fragment containing the rpsL gene coding for ribosomal protein S12 [2].
