Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

RPS15A is a core structural component of the 40S ribosomal subunit that is essential for ribosome biogenesis, rRNA processing, and translational integrity, and functions as an oncogenic signaling hub in multiple cancer types (PMID:8185605, PMID:40239541). Loss of RPS15A disrupts nucleolar architecture, impairs pre-rRNA and mature rRNA synthesis, and triggers nucleolar stress-mediated p53/p21 activation leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis (PMID:40239541, PMID:26989627). Beyond its ribosomal role, RPS15A activates Wnt/β-catenin, Akt/IKK-β/NF-κB, mTOR, and ERK1/2 signaling to promote proliferation, survival, and angiogenesis; its protein stability is regulated by FBXL18-mediated K63-linked ubiquitination, GGCT binding, and lncRNA RHPN1-AS1, while its expression is transcriptionally repressed by FOXN3 and post-transcriptionally suppressed by miR-29, miR-519d-3p, and miR-147b (PMID:29242604, PMID:30661291, PMID:37378633, PMID:40044122, PMID:41026296, PMID:37016167, PMID:31665807). RPS15A overexpression drives hepatocellular carcinoma development downstream of hepatitis B virus X antigen and promotes tumor formation in xenograft models (PMID:15108328, PMID:29242604).
