Protein component of the small (40S) ribosomal subunit; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein S26, no bacterial homolog; RPS26B has a paralog, RPS26A, that arose from the whole genome duplication; human homolog can partially complement an RPS26A, RPS26B double null mutant; mutations in the human gene are associated with Diamond-Blackfan anemia [Source:SGD;Acc:S000000933]
S26B
Chromosome V: 423,952-424,311 forward strand.
R64-1-1:BK006939.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 487 orthologues and 1 paralogue.
