Abstract:All 81 ribosomal proteins (RPs) that form the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) 80S ribosome are encoded by several paralogous genes. For example, the nearly identical RPS24A and RPS24B proteins are encoded by RPS24A and RPS24B, respectively. Here we explored the functions of RPS24A and RPS24B in Arabidopsis. Their encoding genes exhibit combined haploinsufficiency, as at least two wild-type copies of either RPS24A or RPS24B are required for plant viability and at least three are required for normal plant dev… Show more
