A structural constituent of ribosome. Predicted to be involved in cytoplasmic translation. Located in cytosolic ribosome. Is expressed in adult head; adult heart; organism; and ovary. Used to study intrinsic cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human RPS3A (ribosomal protein S3A).
FB Description
Ribosomal protein S3A (RpS3A) encodes an essential component of the small ribosomal subunit that functions in protein synthesis. It is classified as a 'Minute' gene as heterozygous mutants exhibit a slower developmental rate and small adult bristles.
