Molecular function assignments were determined by gene ontology, RGD, and NCBI.
* RNA-binding was assigned in some cases on empirical data [99], thus classification does not necessarily imply primary function. Proteins in bold represent those that were placed in multiple categories, thus totals can exceed 100%. Rat ribosomal proteins Rpl6 and Rpl13a were excluded.
