UniProt functional annotation for P40693

UniProt code: P40693.

Organism: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces.
 
Function: Involved in the biogenesis of the 60S ribosomal subunit. May act as a specificity factor that binds precursor rRNAs and tethers the enzymes that carry out the early 5' to 3' exonucleolytic reactions that generate the mature rRNAs. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11087857}.
 
Subcellular location: Nucleus, nucleolus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11087857}.
Miscellaneous: Present with 7720 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}.
Similarity: Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL30 family. {ECO:0000305}.
