Eosinophil cationic protein/RNase 3 is another RNase A-family ribonuclease with direct antiviral activity.
Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) is one of two RNase A-superfamily ribonucleases found in secretory granules of human eosinophilic leukocytes. Although the physiologic function of eosinophils [and thus of the two eosinophil ribonucleases, ECP and eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN)] remains controversial, we have recently shown that isolated human eosinophils promote ribonuclease-dependent tox...
متن کاملPop3p is essential for the activity of the RNase MRP and RNase P ribonucleoproteins in vivo.
RNase MRP is a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) particle which is involved in the processing of pre-rRNA at site A3 in internal transcribed spacer 1. Although RNase MRP has been analysed functionally, the structure and composition of the particle are not well characterized. A genetic screen for mutants which are synthetically lethal (sl) with a temperature-sensitive (ts) mutation in the RNA component of...
متن کاملRNase activity of polynucleotide phosphorylase is critical at low temperature in Escherichia coli and is complemented by RNase II.
In Escherichia coli, the cold shock response is exerted upon a temperature change from 37 degrees C to 15 degrees C and is characterized by induction of several cold shock proteins, including polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), during acclimation phase. In E. coli, PNPase is essential for growth at low temperatures; however, its exact role in this essential function has not been fully elucid...
متن کاملA multiple mutant of Escherichia coli lacking the exoribonucleases RNase II, RNase D, and RNase BN.
A multiple mutant strain of Escherichia coli containing mutations affecting the exoribonucleases, RNase II, RNase D, and RNase BN, and also the endonuclease, RNase I, was constructed by P1-mediated transduction. Extracts of the mutant strain were lacking the aforementioned RNase activities. The multiple mutant displayed normal growth in both rich and minimal media at a variety of temperatures, ...
متن کاملhPop4: a new protein subunit of the human RNase MRP and RNase P ribonucleoprotein complexes.
RNase MRP is a ribonucleoprotein particle involved in the processing of pre-rRNA. The RNase MRP particle is structurally highly related to the RNase P particle, which is involved in pre-tRNA processing. Their RNA components fold into a similar secondary structure and they share several protein subunits. We have identified and characterised human and mouse cDNAs that encode proteins homologous t...
