General annotation (Comments)

Involvement in disease

Defects in RPL21 are a cause of generalized hypotrichosis simplex (HTS). A rare form of non-syndromic hereditary hypotrichosis without characteristic hair shaft anomalies. Affected individuals typically show normal hair at birth, but hair loss and thinning of the hair shaft start during early childhood and progress with age. Ref.9

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ribosomal protein L21e family.
