Symbol: rps-12 Name: Ribosomal Protein, Small subunit Alias: Ribosomal Protein;Small subunit family member (rps-12);WBGENE00004481 Entrez gene ID: 175786 Ensembl gene ID: F54E7.2 Species: Worm (Taxid: 6239) Functional description: Ribosomal Protein, Small subunit; Protein RPS-12; 40S ribosomal protein S12 [Source:UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot;Acc:P49196] [Ensembl]; rps-12 encodes a small ribosomal subunit S12 protein; by homology, RPS-12 is predicted to function in protein biosynthesis; in C. elegans, RPS-12 activity is required for embryonic and germline development, normal movement, and the overall health of the animal. [WormBase] Observation: rps-12 RNAi in the adulthood extends mean and maximum lifespan by 12 and 22%, respectively [23144747]. Interventions: Assays: Organismal Lifespan Mean: +11.6 Maximum: +21.7 Classification: References: Aging Relevance Analysis/Source: Homologs Edit \ Update (Admin) | Delete |
