CIARC_P022 — Cicer arietinum

Summary

CIARC_P022, also known as RPS2 or CaRPS2, is a chickpea (Cicer arietinum) gene on chromosome NC_011163.1 that encodes a small ribosomal subunit protein uS2, a structural constituent of the ribosome. The product belongs to the Ribosomal_S2_bac/mit/plastid family and is localized to the mitochondrial ribosomal small subunit complex. RPS2 is associated with translation and the biological process GO:0015979. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to ATP synthase F0 subunit domains, though this association is not established for chickpea.
