Abstract excerpt
In eukaryotes, the beak structure of 40S subunits is formed by the protrusion of the 18S rRNA helix 33 and three ribosomal proteins: eS10, eS12 and eS31. The exact role of these proteins in ribosome biogenesis is not well understood. While eS10 is an essential protein encoded by two paralogous genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, eS12 and eS31 are not essential proteins encoded by the single-copy genes RPS12 and...
