RPL35

Chr 9AD

ribosomal protein L35

Also known as: DBA19, L35, uL29

The protein is a structural component of the large 60S ribosomal subunit that catalyzes protein synthesis in the cytoplasm. Mutations cause Diamond-Blackfan anemia 19, inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. The pathogenic mechanism involves impaired ribosome function leading to defective protein synthesis and the characteristic bone marrow failure seen in Diamond-Blackfan anemia.
