| Ptm: | Phosphorylated by NEK6. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20873783}. | |
| Ptm: | Ubiquitinated. Deubiquitinated by DESI2, leading to its stabilization. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28483520}. | |
| Disease: | Diamond-Blackfan anemia 8 (DBA8) [MIM:612563]: A form of Diamond-Blackfan anemia, a congenital non-regenerative hypoplastic anemia that usually presents early in infancy. Diamond-Blackfan anemia is characterized by a moderate to severe macrocytic anemia, erythroblastopenia, and an increased risk of malignancy. 30 to 40% of Diamond-Blackfan anemia patients present with short stature and congenital anomalies, the most frequent being craniofacial (Pierre- Robin syndrome and cleft palate), thumb and urogenital anomalies. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19061985}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the eukaryotic ribosomal protein eS7 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
