Eukaryotic ribosomal protein

Eukaryotic ribosomal proteins are essential components of ribosomes, the cell’s machinery for building proteins. These proteins work together with ribosomal RNA (rRNA) to form the two main parts of the ribosome: the small and large subunits. They provide structural support and help ensure the accurate assembly of amino acids into proteins based on genetic instructions. Found inside eukaryotic cells (like those in humans and plants), these proteins are crucial for the proper functioning of cells, supporting growth, repair, and overall cellular activity by facilitating protein synthesis.
