MRPL51 polyclonal antibody

Mammalian mitochondrial ribosomes (mitoribosomes) are responsible for protein synthesis within the mitochondrion. The mitoribosomes are composed of a 4:1 ratio of protein to RNA, with the proteins forming two subunits, the 28S subunit and the 39S subunit. Across species, the proteins that make up the mitoribosome subunits vary greatly in sequence, preventing easy recognition by sequence homology. MRP-L51(mitochondrial ribosomal protein L51), also known as CDA09, MRP64, bMRP64 or HSPC241, is a 128 amino acid mitochondrial ribosomal protein. MRP-L51 is a component of the mitochondrial ribosome large subunit (39S) which consists of a 16S rRNA and about 50 distinct proteins
