rps-21 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to be a structural constituent of ribosome. Predicted to be involved in endonucleolytic cleavage in ITS1 to separate SSU-rRNA from 5.8S rRNA and LSU-rRNA from tricistronic rRNA transcript (SSU-rRNA, 5.8S rRNA, LSU-rRNA) and endonucleolytic cleavage to generate mature 3'-end of SSU-rRNA from (SSU-rRNA, 5.8S rRNA, LSU-rRNA). Predicted to be located in cytosol; ribosome; and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be part of cytosolic small ribosomal subunit. Is an ortholog of human RPS21 (ribosomal protein S21).
