Ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) belongs to S6E family of ribosomal proteins and it is involved in the control of cell growth and proliferation via selective translation (1). It is a major substrate of Ribosomal Protein S6 Kinase (RSK) in the eukaryote ribosomes. During translation, it regulates the translation of any RNA which contains 5’ terminal oligopyrimidine sequence (5’TOP) (2). 5’TOP encodes proteins for cell cycle progression, ribosomal proteins, and elongation factors. The phospholyation of RPS6 has been linked to increase in selective 5’TOP translation. The major phospholyation sites RPS6 includes Ser235, 236, 240, and 244 (2). The phospholyation on RPS6 is stimulated by growth factors, tumor promoting agents, and mitogens. During growth arrest, RPS6 is dephoshorylated (3).
