RPS7 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_002G090566, designated PvRPS7, encodes a small ribosomal subunit protein uS7, a structural constituent of the ribosome. The gene product is annotated with rRNA binding and mRNA binding activities and localises to the small ribosomal subunit and the ribosome, and is associated with translation. In French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) on chromosome 2, PvRPS7 is associated with the biological process of translation. Studies of related genes in other species link the RPS7 family to small ribosomal subunit function, though these associations are not directly established for PvRPS7.
