The RPO-A Shmel (РПО-А «Шмель") is a Soviet and Russian single-use, shoulder-fired 93 mm rocket launcher with a thermobaric warhead, adopted in 1988 and still used by Russia.
RpoB
RpoB (rpoB) is the bacterial gene encoding the beta subunit of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase; its 81-bp RRDR mutations cause rifampicin resistance and underpin TB molecular diagnostics like Xpert, with I491F as a diagnostic-escape mutation.
RpoS (σ38)
RpoS (σS, σ38, KatF) is the alternative sigma factor of E. coli RNA polymerase and master regulator of the general stress response, induced in stationary phase and starvation, controlling over 500 stress-survival genes.
RPS10
RPS10 (ribosomal protein S10, HGNC:10383) is a human gene at 6p21.31 encoding eS10, a 165-aa protein of the 40S ribosomal subunit; mutations cause Diamond-Blackfan anemia 9, about 3% of DBA cases.
RPS12
RPS12 (ribosomal protein S12, eS12, HGNC:10385) is a human gene on 6q23.2 encoding a 40S ribosomal subunit protein central to translational fidelity, haploinsufficient in mice, and distinct from MRPS12.
RPS14
RPS14 (ribosomal protein S14, uS11), Gene ID 6208, encodes a human 40S ribosomal subunit protein; its haploinsufficiency causes the erythroid defect of 5q- syndrome via p53 activation.
RPS2
RPS2 (ribosomal protein S2, uS5, LLREP3) is a human 16p13.3 gene encoding a conserved 40S ribosomal subunit protein governing start codon selection, a PRMT3 substrate, and over-expressed in prostate cancer.
RPS27
RPS27 (eS27, MPS1, metallopanstimulin 1) is a human gene at 1q21.3 encoding a C4-type zinc finger protein of the 40S ribosomal small subunit, required for 18S rRNA processing, with paralog RPS27L and links to melanoma and Diamond-Blackfan anemia 17.
RPS6KA1
RPS6KA1 (RSK1, p90Rsk, MAPKAPK1A) is a human gene at 1p36.11 encoding a dual-domain serine/threonine kinase downstream of ERK/MAPK that phosphorylates CREB1, RPS6, EIF4B, and BAD, with context-dependent roles in cancers.
RPS6KA3
RPS6KA3 (RSK2) is an Xp22.12 gene encoding a dual-domain serine/threonine kinase of the RSK family acting in Ras-ERK/MAPK signaling; loss-of-function mutations cause Coffin-Lowry syndrome and X-linked intellectual disability 19.
RPS6KB1
RPS6KB1 (S6K1, p70S6K) is a human chromosome 17q23.1 gene encoding a PI3K/mTOR-regulated serine/threonine kinase that phosphorylates ribosomal protein S6 to drive protein synthesis, cell growth, and proliferation; amplified in breast cancer and an unfavorable prognostic marker in lung adenocarcinoma.
RPS7
RPS7 (ribosomal protein S7, eS7, DBA8) is a human chromosome 2p25.3 gene encoding a 40S ribosomal subunit protein; heterozygous variants cause Diamond-Blackfan anemia and it is linked to several cancers.
