mitochondrial ribosomal protein
Mitochondrial ribosomal proteins are a group of proteins that are essential for protein synthesis within the mitochondria. They function to help assemble the mitochondrial ribosome, which is responsible for translating the genetic information stored in mitochondrial DNA into functional proteins. The interaction between these proteins and the mitochondrial ribosome is crucial for efficient protein production and proper functioning of the mitochondria.
