Protein component of the small (40S) ribosomal subunit; RPS0B has a paralog, RPS0A, that arose from the whole genome duplication; required for maturation of 18S rRNA along with Rps0Ap; deletion of either RPS0 gene reduces growth rate, deletion of both genes is lethal; homologous to human ribosomal protein SA and bacterial S2 [Source:SGD;Acc:S000004038]
NAB1B, S0B, YST2
Chromosome XII: 242,232-243,349 forward strand.
R64-1-1:BK006945.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 418 orthologues and 1 paralogue.
