Identification of the Acinetobacter baumannii Ribonuclease P Catalytic Subunit: Cleavage of a Target mRNA in the Presence of an External Guide Sequence [PDF]
The bacterial ribonuclease P or RNase P holoenzyme is usually composed of a catalytic RNA subunit, M1, and a cofactor protein, C5. This enzyme was first identified for its role in maturation of tRNAs by endonucleolytic cleavage of the pre-tRNA. The RNase

Eukaryotic Ribonuclease P: A Plurality of Ribonucleoprotein Enzymes [PDF]
▪ Abstract Ribonuclease P (RNase P) is an essential endonuclease that acts early in the tRNA biogenesis pathway. This enzyme catalyzes cleavage of the leader sequence of precursor tRNAs (pre-tRNAs), generating the mature 5′ end of tRNAs. RNase P activities have been identified in Bacteria, Archaea, and Eucarya, as well as organelles.

Inhibition of Murine Cytomegalovirus Infection in Animals by RNase P-Associated External Guide Sequences [PDF]
External guide sequence (EGS) RNAs are associated with ribonuclease P (RNase P), a tRNA processing enzyme, and represent promising agents for gene-targeting applications as they can direct RNase-P-mediated cleavage of a target mRNA.

Subsites for substrate recognition by bacterial ribonuclease P [PDF]
We have prepared series of shape variant RNAs of a tRNA precursor and analyzed the substrate shape recognition by bacterial ribonuclease P ribozyme and holoenzyme. The results showed the evidence for the presence of subsites for the recognition of the trna shape.

Modulation of ribonuclease P activity by calcipotriol [PDF]
The effects of cholesterol, 7‐dehydrocholesterol, vitamin D3 and several synthetic vitamin D3 analogs on ribonuclease P (RNase P) were investigated using a cell‐free system from the slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum. RNase P is an ubiquitous and essential enzyme that endonucleolytically cleaves all tRNA precursors to produce the mature 5′ end.
