Ribosomal protein L26 (RpL26) encodes a protein component of large ribosomal subunits. [Date last reviewed: 2018-10-25]
Gene Group (FlyBase)
CYTOPLASMIC LARGE RIBOSOMAL PROTEINS -
Cytoplasmic ribosomes are found on the endoplasmic reticulum and in the cytoplasm. They translate all mRNAs produced from nuclear genes and perform the majority of cellular protein synthesis. Ribosomes are formed by two ribonucleoprotein subunits, large and small. The principle function of the large subunit is to bind tRNA during the synthesis of polypeptides. (Adapted from FBrf0205398).

Model Confidence:
  • Very high (pLDDT > 90)
  • Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
  • Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
  • Very low (pLDDT < 50)

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

            Two observations suggest that RpL26 is haplolethal or haplosterile. First, we know of no deletion that has ever been reported for this region. Second, three attempts to generate a deletion for this region using FLP-mediated recombination between FRT-bearing transposon insertions failed during the work described in Cook et al. (FBrf0219066). By the criteria outlined in Marygold et al. (FBrf0205398), we categorize RpL26 as a "likely Minute" gene.

            RNAi screen using dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene results in aberrantly short, monopolar spindles when assayed in S2 cells. This phenotype can be observed when the screen is performed with or without Cdc27 dsRNA.

            RNAi generated by PCR using primers directed to this gene causes a cell growth and viability phenotype when assayed in Kc167 and S2R+ cells.
