DBA is a disease caused by mutations in any one of several ribosomal proteins, such as RPL15, RPL26, RPL35, RPL35a, RPLP2, RPS14, and RPS19, which lead to an imbalance between rRNA and ribosomal protein levels during construction of the ribosome (Uechi et al., 2008; Devlin et al., 2010; Horos and von Lindern, 2012; Landowski et al., 2013). This evidence concerns the gene RPS19 and Diamond-Blackfan anemia.
