Eukaryotic Ribonuclease P: A Plurality of Ribonucleoprotein Enzymes [PDF]
Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2002 ▪ 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.

Characterization of one new non-S-RNase of Armeniaca cathayana
Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2019 Armeniaca cathayana, a new species described in 2010, belongs to gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) system which is under S-allele control. One new non-S-ribonuclease (non-S-RNase) was found in A. cathayana through comparing its nucleotide and amino

Ribonucleases P/MRP and the Expanding Ribonucleoprotein World [PDF]
IUBMB Life, 2012 AbstractOne of the hallmarks of life is the widespread use of certain essential ribozymes. The ubiquitous ribonuclease P (RNase P) and eukaryotic RNase MRP are essential complexes where a structured, noncoding RNA acts in catalysis. Recent discoveries have elucidated the three‐dimensional structure of the ancestral ribonucleoprotein complex, suggested ...

DNA-based S-genotyping of Japanese plum and pluot cultivars to clarify incompatibility relationships [PDF]
, 2007 Diploid japanese plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.) cultivars are commonly self-incompatible. To date, 14 incompatibility alleles (S-alleles) have been identified and labeled with alphabetical (S-a-S-n) and 5 with numeric codes (S-1, S-3-S-6).

Crystal structure of a bacterial ribonuclease P RNA [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 The x-ray crystal structure of a 417-nt ribonuclease P RNA from Bacillus stearothermophilus was solved to 3.3-Å resolution. This RNA enzyme is constructed from a number of coaxially stacked helical domains joined together by local and long-range interactions.
