RPS3 [ENSP00000278572]

40S ribosomal protein S3; Involved in translation as a component of the 40S small ribosomal subunit . Has endonuclease activity and plays a role in repair of damaged DNA . Cleaves phosphodiester bonds of DNAs containing altered bases with broad specificity and cleaves supercoiled DNA more efficiently than relaxed DNA . Displays high binding affinity for 7,8-dihydro- 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), a common DNA lesion caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) . Has also been shown to bind with similar affinity to intact and damaged DNA . Stimulates the N-glycosylase activity of the base excision protein OGG1 . Enhances the uracil excision activity of UNG1 . Also stimulates the cleavage of the phosphodiester backbone by APEX1 . When located in the mitochondrion, reduces cellular ROS levels and mitochondrial DNA damage . Has also been shown to negatively regulate DNA repair in cells exposed to hydrogen peroxide . Plays a role in regulating transcription as part of the NF-kappa-B p65-p50 complex where it binds to the RELA/p65 subunit, enhances binding of the complex to DNA and promotes transcription of target genes . Represses its own translation by binding to its cognate mRNA . Binds to and protects TP53/p53 from MDM2-mediated ubiquitination . Involved in spindle formation and chromosome movement during mitosis by regulating microtubule polymerization . Involved in induction of apoptosis through its role in activation of CASP8 . Induces neuronal apoptosis by interacting with the E2F1 transcription factor and acting synergistically with it to up-regulate pro-apoptotic proteins BCL2L11/BIM and HRK/Dp5 . Interacts with TRADD following exposure to UV radiation and induces apoptosis by caspase-dependent JNK activation .
