Cardiomyocyte sarcomeres contain localized ribosomes, but the factors responsible for their localization and the significance of localized translation are unknown. Using proximity labeling, we identified Ribosomal Protein SA (RPSA) as a Z-line protein. In cultured cardiomyocytes, the loss of RPSA led to impaired local protein translation and reduced sarcomere integrity. By employing CAS9 expressing mice along with adeno-associated viruses expressing CRE recombinase and single-guide RNAs targeting Rpsa, we knocked out Rpsa in vivo and observed mis-localization of ribosomes and diminished local translation. These genetic mosaic mice with Rpsa knockout in a subset of cardiomyocytes developed dilated cardiomyopathy, featuring atrophy of RPSA-deficient cardiomyocytes, compensatory hypertrophy of unaffected cardiomyocytes, left ventricular dilation, and impaired contractile function. We demonstrate that RPSA C-terminal domain is sufficient for localization to the Z-lines and that if the microtubule network is disrupted RPSA loses its sarcomeric localization. These findings highlight RPSA as a ribosomal factor essential for ribosome localization to the Z-line, facilitating local translation and sarcomere maintenance.
