Protein component of the small (40S) ribosomal subunit; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein S26, no bacterial homolog; RPS26A has a paralog, RPS26B, that arose from the whole genome duplication; human homolog can partially complement an RPS26A, RPS26B double null mutant; mutations in the human gene are associated with Diamond-Blackfan anemia [Source:SGD;Acc:S000003157]
RPS26, S26A
Chromosome VII: 148,229-148,588 reverse strand.
R64-1-1:BK006941.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 375 orthologues and 1 paralogue.
