RPL22 (Large ribosomal subunit protein eL22) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a tumour suppressor, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Hepatocellular carcinoma, Colorectal cancer and Gastric & gastro-oesophageal junction cancer. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
