The beta-isoform of the BRCA2 and CDKN1A(p21)-interacting protein (BCCIP) stabilizes nuclear RPL23/uL14.

BRCA2 and CDKN1A(p21,CIP1)-interacting protein (BCCIP) is an evolutionary conserved protein implicated in maintenance of genome stability and cell cycle progression. Two isoforms of BCCIP with distinct C-terminal domains exist in humans. We show that mammalian BCCIPβ, but not BCCIPα, forms a ternary complex with the ribosomal protein RPL23/uL14 and the pre-60S trans-acting factor eIF6.
