Rps6 - ribosomal protein S6

Predicted to enable protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of ribosome. Involved in glucose homeostasis. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including T cell activation; activation-induced cell death of T cells; and ribosome biogenesis. Located in dendrite; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; and ribosome. Part of cytosolic small ribosomal subunit and polysome. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; forelimb; gonad; intestine epithelium; and salivary gland. Orthologous to human RPS6 (ribosomal protein S6).
