Ribosomal 60S subunit protein L26B; binds to 5.8S rRNA; non-essential even when paralog is also deleted; deletion has minimal affections on ribosome biosynthesis; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein L26 and bacterial L24; RPL26B has a paralog, RPL26A, that arose from the whole genome duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000003266]
L26B, L33B, YL33
Chromosome VII: 555,812-556,672 forward strand.
R64-1-1:BK006941.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 375 orthologues and 1 paralogue.
