Category:GO:0006610 ! ribosomal protein import into nucleus

name: ribosomal protein import into nucleus
namespace: biological_process
def: "The directed movement of a ribosomal protein from the cytoplasm into the nucleus, across the nuclear membrane. At least some ribosomal proteins, including rpl12, uses the importin 11 pathway as a major route into the nucleus." [GOC:ai, PMID:11809816]
comment: Ribosomal protein rpl12 uses a different import pathway, which is why it has a separate GO term.
