RPS7
RPS7 (Small ribosomal subunit protein eS7) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response.
Overview
Component of the small ribosomal subunit. The ribosome is a large ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the synthesis of proteins in the cell. Required for rRNA maturation.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.50 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes genetic literature 0.76, clinical 0.11, literature 0.90, genetic association 0.04, animal model 0.35).
- Target · the protein and the cell it sits on

Biology
Component of the small ribosomal subunit. The ribosome is a large ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the synthesis of proteins in the cell. Required for rRNA maturation. Part of the small subunit (SSU) processome, first precursor of the small eukaryotic ribosomal subunit. During the assembly of the SSU processome in the nucleolus, many ribosome biogenesis factors, an RNA chaperone and ribosomal proteins associate with the nascent pre-rRNA and work in concert to generate RNA folding, modifications, rearrangements and cleavage as well as targeted degradation of pre-ribosomal RNA by the RNA exosome. Location: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome; Cytoplasm; Nucleus, nucleolus (UniProt). Locus 2p25.3 (HGNC).
Notes
top- Written by scripts/fetch-cancer-genes.ts from CIViC, Open Targets, IntOGen, HGNC and UniProt; the function text is UniProt's, condensed and in UK spelling. Roles: Open Targets known-drug datatype score 0.11. Evidence tier "clinical-evidence" is the strongest of those signals.
- Prevalence not recorded: none of the sources gives a positivity rate.
