Function

Ribosomal protein L5 (RPL5) is one of the 34 proteins which belong to the large 50S subunit of the prokaryotic ribosome or to the ca. 49 proteins in the large 60S subunit of the eukaryotic ribosome. It is known to bind to the 5S RRNA from the large subunit. In the archaea like in Haloarcula marismortui, the L5 is called L5P (RPL5P). The 3D structure of the Ribosomal protein L5 complex with 5S RNA from Thermus thermophilus, (PDB code 1mji) is shown to the right[1].

Relevance

Mutations in RPL5 are associated with cleft palate and abnormal thumbs in Diamond-Blackfan anemia patients[2].
