{"symbol":"MRPL18","synonyms":["MRP-L18","HSPC071","L18MT"],"name":"mitochondrial ribosomal protein L18","description":"This nuclear gene encodes a protein component of the larger 39S subunit of mitochondrial ribosome. This protein may also aid in the import of nuclear-encoded 5S rRNA into mitochondria. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, most of which are not predicted to encode a protein. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 16.
