UniProt functional annotation for P09001

UniProt code: P09001.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Subunit: Component of the mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit (mt- LSU) (PubMed:28892042, PubMed:25838379, PubMed:25278503). Mature mammalian 55S mitochondrial ribosomes consist of a small (28S) and a large (39S) subunit. The 28S small subunit contains a 12S ribosomal RNA (12S mt-rRNA) and 30 different proteins. The 39S large subunit contains a 16S rRNA (16S mt-rRNA), a copy of mitochondrial valine transfer RNA (mt-tRNA(Val)), which plays an integral structural role, and 52 different proteins. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25278503, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25838379, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28892042}.
Subcellular location: Mitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25278503, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25838379, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28892042}.
Disease: Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 9 (COXPD9) [MIM:614582]: A mitochondrial disease characterized by failure to thrive, poor feeding, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, hepatomegaly, and psychomotor retardation. Death in infancy has been observed in some cases. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21786366}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity: Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL3 family. {ECO:0000305}.
