Anti-Ribosomal Protein L10L

This gene encodes a protein sharing sequence similarity with ribosomal protein L10. It is not currently known whether the encoded protein is a functional ribosomal protein or whether it has evolved a function that is independent of the ribosome. This gene is intronless. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008], Protein function: Testis-specific component of the ribosome, which is required for the transition from prophase to metaphase in male meiosis I. Compensates for the inactivated X-linked RPL10 paralog during spermatogenesis (PubMed:12490704). The ribosome is a large ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the synthesis of proteins in the cell (PubMed:23636399, PubMed:25901680, PubMed:32669547). The male germ cell-specific ribosome displays a ribosomal polypeptide exit tunnel of distinct size and charge states compared with the classical ribosome. It is responsible for regulating the biosynthesis and folding of a subset of male germ-cell-specific proteins that are essential for the formation of sperm.
