Description

MRPL58 encodes a mitochondrial ribosomal protein that is a component of the large 39S subunit of the mitochondrial ribosome. This protein is essential for mitochondrial protein synthesis, which is critical for oxidative phosphorylation and cellular energy production. The gene is located on chromosome 3q22.1 and is expressed ubiquitously.

Protein Summary

MRPL58 is a 25.6 kDa protein that localizes to the mitochondrial matrix and forms part of the large ribosomal subunit. It interacts with rRNA and other ribosomal proteins to facilitate peptide bond formation during mitochondrial protein synthesis. Defects in MRPL58 can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction and are associated with combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency.
