SBDS SBDS ribosome maturation factor

Gene ID: 51119, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: SDS; SDO1; SWDS; CGI-97

Summary

This gene encodes a highly conserved protein that plays an essential role in ribosome biogenesis. The encoded protein interacts with elongation factor-like GTPase 1 to disassociate eukaryotic initiation factor 6 from the late cytoplasmic pre-60S ribosomal subunit allowing assembly of the 80S subunit. Mutations within this gene are associated with the autosomal recessive disorder Shwachman-Bodian-Diamond syndrome. This gene has a closely linked pseudogene that is distally located.
