Description:
Ribosomal Protein S23 (RPS23) belongs to the S12P family of ribosomal proteins, is a component of the 40S ribosomal subunit and functions in protein synthesis. RPS23 exists as multiple processed pseudogenes, one of which is RPS23 pseudogene 2 (RPS23P2). Processed pseudogenes are likely formed by reverse transcription and integration of processed mRNA into the genome by L1 transposons. Protocadherin 18 (PCDH18) belongs to the protocadherin gene family. These proteins contain up to seven cadherin-like motifs that are distinct from those present in classical cadherins, a single transmembrane domain, and distinct cytoplasmic domains. They are highly expressed in the nervous system. Genetic variance in the RPS23P2-PCDH18 intergenic region associated with haematological parameters (e.g., white blood cell count).
