Ribonucleases P/MRP protein subunit POP1, N-terminal
This entry represents a conserved region approximately 150 residues long located towards the N-terminus of the POP1 subunit that is common to both the RNase MRP and RNase P ribonucleoproteins (EC:3.1.26.5) [1]. These RNA-containing enzymes generate m ...
This entry represents a conserved region approximately 150 residues long located towards the N-terminus of the POP1 subunit that is common to both the RNase MRP and RNase P ribonucleoproteins (EC:3.1.26.5) [1]. These RNA-containing enzymes generate mature tRNA molecules by cleaving their 5' ends. This is a short N-terminal domain consisting of a small helical core and a long alpha-helix [2], which is enriched with positively charged residues involved in pre-tRNA substrate recognition [2].
Pop8 is a component of ribonuclease P, a protein complex that generates mature tRNA molecules by cleaving their 5'-ends. It is also a component of Ribonuclease MRP, which cleaves pre-rRNA sequences [1]. Ribonuclease P consists of an RNA moiety and at ...
Pop8 is a component of ribonuclease P, a protein complex that generates mature tRNA molecules by cleaving their 5'-ends. It is also a component of Ribonuclease MRP, which cleaves pre-rRNA sequences [1]. Ribonuclease P consists of an RNA moiety and at least 9 protein subunits including POP1, POP3, POP4, POP5, POP6, POP7, POP8, RPP1 and RPR2. Ribonuclease MRP complex consists of an RNA moiety and at least 10 protein subunits including POP1, POP3, POP4, POP5, POP6, POP7, POP8, RMP1, RPP1 and SNM1, many of which are shared with the Ribonuclease P complex [2]. Pop8 interacts with Pop5 and Rpp1 to form the Pop5-Pop8-(Rpp1)2 heterotetramer, which is part of the arm module of the p[protein hook [2].
