60S ribosomal protein L22 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RPL22 gene.Ribosomes the organelles that catalyze protein synthesis consist of a small 40S subunit and a large 60S subunit. Together these subunits are composed of 4 RNA species and approximately 80 structurally distinct proteins. This gene encodes a cytoplasmic ribosomal protein that is a component of the 60S subunit. The protein belongs to the L22E family of ribosomal proteins.
