80S are ribosomes present in eukaryotes. Their small subunit is 40S and the large subunit is 60S.^[1] Ribosomes present in eukaryotes differ differ from those found in prokaryote in many ways, including being larger, containing more and larger proteins, and have four (instead of three) molecules of RNA.^[2]
