| Gene Symbol | RPS12 |
| Full Name | Ribosomal Protein S12 |
| Aliases | RPS12PROTEIN |
| Chromosome | 6p22.1 |
| Function | RPS12 encodes Ribosomal Protein S12, a component of the small (40S) ribosomal subunit. |
| Pathways | mTOR |
| UniProt ID | P25311 |
| NCBI Gene ID | 6206 |
| GeneCards | RPS12 |
| Human Protein Atlas | RPS12 |
| N-terminal domain | Contacts 18S rRNA and contributes to ribosome assembly |
| C-terminal domain | Forms part of the decoding center, interacting with mRNA and tRNA |
| RNA binding surface | Critical for interaction with 18S rRNA |
| Decoding center position | RPS12 directly participates in codon-anticodon recognition |
| tRNA positioning | Facilitates proper positioning of the initiator tRNA (Met-tRNAi) in the P-site of the 40S subunit |
| Associated Diseases | neurodegeneration |
