| Post Translational Modifications | Two mature forms are produced by differential two-step proteolytic cleavage. Cleaved by the mitochondrial processing protease to produce the long mature form and subsequently by the mitochondrial intermediate protease to produce the short mature form. In the presence of CUL3, undergoes 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination at Lys-150 which results in proteasomal degradation. |
| Function | As a component of the mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit, plays a role in mitochondrial translation. When present in mitochondria as a free protein not associated with the ribosome, associates with mitochondrial RNA polymerase POLRMT to activate transcription. Required for POLRMT stability. |
