The S in '28S RNA' stands for svedberg, which is a unit of measurement related to sedimentation rate. This is the rate at which a particle 'settles' and is related to its size and shape.

What are the chemical components of ribosomes are proteins?

A ribosome is a biological molecule made of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and proteins (ribosomal proteins). A ribosome is made of two pieces (subunits). A typical eukaryotic cell ribosome consists of two subunits named 60S (large subunit) and 40S (small). The 60S subunit is made of a 5S RNA (of 120 nucleotides), a 28S RNA (of 4700 nucleotides), a 5.8S subunit (of 160 nucleotides) and around 49 proteins. The 40S subunit, on the contrary, has a 1900 nucleotide (18S) RNA and approximately 33 proteins.
