The function of Ensembl gene identifier ENSG00000089009 (RPL6, ribosomal protein L6) is as follows. Component of the large ribosomal subunit (PubMed:12962325, PubMed:23636399, PubMed:25901680, PubMed:25957688, PubMed:32669547). The ribosome is a large ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the synthesis of proteins in the cell (PubMed:12962325, PubMed:23636399, PubMed:25901680, PubMed:25957688, PubMed:32669547). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23636399, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25901680, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25957688, ECO:0000269|PubMed:32669547, ECO:0000305|PubMed:12962325}. (Microbial infection) Specifically binds to domain C of the Tax-responsive enhancer element in the long terminal repeat of HTLV-I (PubMed:8457378). .
