60S ribosomal protein L15is aproteinthat in humans is encoded by theRPL15gene.[5][6]

Ribosomes,theorganellesthat catalyzeprotein synthesis,consist of a small40Ssubunit and a large60Ssubunit. Together these subunits are composed of 4RNAspecies and approximately 80 structurally distinct proteins. This gene encodes aribosomal proteinthat is a component of the 60S subunit. The protein belongs to the L15E family of ribosomal proteins. It is located in thecytoplasm.This gene shares sequence similarity with the yeast ribosomal protein YL10 gene. Although this gene has been referred to as RPL10, its official symbol is RPL15. This gene has been shown to be overexpressed in some esophagealtumorscompared to normal matched tissues.Transcript variantsutilizing alternativepolyAsignals exist. As is typical for genes encoding ribosomal proteins, there are multiple processedpseudogenesof this gene dispersed through the genome.[6]
