“…Several proteomic analyses have shown that ribosomal proteins as well as proteins related to ribosome biogenesis are some of the most up or downregulated proteins in the transition stage [ 108 , 112 , 113 , 141 ]. However, it is necessary to highlight that some ribosomal proteins exhibit extraribosomal functions in other organisms, such as acting as DNA endonucleases (RPS3/uS3) [ 142 , 143 ], helping in antiviral responses (RPL10/uL16, RPL13A/uL13) [ 144 , 145 ], and even being part of the small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins (snoRNP) (RPL7/uL30) [ 146 ]; some act in autoregulation of RP synthesis and as sentinels in ribosome biosynthesis, among other functions [ 147 , 148 , 149 , 150 ].…”
