Mrps7 - mitchondrial ribosomal protein S7

Predicted to enable mRNA binding activity and rRNA binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of ribosome. Predicted to be involved in ribosomal small subunit assembly and translation. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; gonad; heart; liver; and metanephros. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 34. Orthologous to human MRPS7 (mitochondrial ribosomal protein S7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
