MITOCHONDRIAL RIBOSOMAL PROTEIN S17; MRPS17


HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: MRPS17

Cytogenetic location: 7p11.2     Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:55,951,877-55,956,500 (from NCBI)


TEXT

Description

Mitochondria have their own translation system for production of 13 proteins essential for oxidative phosphorylation. MRPS17 is 1 of more than 70 protein components of mitochondrial ribosomes that are encoded by the nuclear genome (Kenmochi et al., 2001).


Cloning and Expression

By proteolytic digestion of whole bovine 28S subunits, followed by peptide analysis and EST database analysis, Koc et al. (2001) identified full-length human MRPS17. The deduced 130-amino acid MRPS17 protein has a calculated molecular mass of 14.5 kD. Removal of a predicted 20-amino acid N-terminal mitochondrial localization signal results in a mature 12.4-kD protein. Koc et al. (2001) identified MRPS17 orthologs in mouse, Drosophila, C. elegans, yeast, and E. coli. Highest conservation is in the N-terminal and central regions of MRPS17 orthologs. Mouse and human MRPS17 share 84.2% amino acid identity.


Mapping

Using radiation hybrid analysis and analysis of an integrated BAC-STS map, Kenmochi et al. (2001) mapped the MRPS17 gene to chromosome 7p11-q11.21. By genomic sequence analysis, Zhang and Gerstein (2003) identified 9 MRPS17 pseudogenes scattered throughout the genome.
