RPS27 (Small ribosomal subunit protein eS27) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response.
Component of the small ribosomal subunit. The ribosome is a large ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the synthesis of proteins in the cell. Required for proper rRNA processing and maturation of 18S rRNAs.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.50 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.91, genetic association 0.09, genetic literature 0.76, clinical 0.11).

No product in this corpus aims at RPS27 yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Broadly expressed or essential: HPA finds the RNA at low tissue specificity; a medicine acting on the wild-type protein would expose normal tissue too. HPA RPS27: RNA low tissue specificity; no normal tissue stained high. Distribution: no corpus cancer carries a prevalence row, threshold or catalogue link for it; Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5. (Rule 7 of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts.)

Component of the small ribosomal subunit. The ribosome is a large ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the synthesis of proteins in the cell. Required for proper rRNA processing and maturation of 18S rRNAs. Part of the small subunit (SSU) processome, first precursor of the small eukaryotic ribosomal subunit. During the assembly of the SSU processome in the nucleolus, many ribosome biogenesis factors, an RNA chaperone and ribosomal proteins associate with the nascent pre-rRNA and work in concert to generate RNA folding, modifications, rearrangements and cleavage as well as targeted degradation of pre-ribosomal RNA by the RNA exosome. Location: Cytoplasm; Nucleus, nucleolus (UniProt). Locus 1q21.3 (HGNC).
RNA: low tissue specificity, detected in all normal tissues.
No normal tissue stained high.
No cancer sample stained medium or high.
Human Protein Atlas version 25.1, antibody staining at reliability approved, enhanced or supported; used under CC BY-SA 3.0. Staining counts are patients per level in the atlas cohort, not population prevalence.
