Antibiotics, 2016 RNase P is an essential endonuclease in tRNA biogenesis, which generates the mature 5′-termini of tRNAs. Most forms of RNase P are ribonucleoproteins, i.e., they consist of an essential RNA and protein subunits.

Proteins Rpr2 and Pop3 increase the activity and thermal stability of yeast RNase P [PDF]
RNA Biology, 2023 RNA-based enzyme RNase P is a ribonucleoprotein complex responsible primarily for 5’-maturation of tRNAs. S. cerevisiae RNase P comprises a catalytic RNA component and nine proteins. The assembly and maturation of S.

Evolution of ribonuclease H genes in prokaryotes to avoid inheritance of redundant genes [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007 Background A theoretical model of genetic redundancy has proposed that the fates of redundant genes depend on the degree of functional redundancy, and that functionally redundant genes will not be inherited together.

RNase P Inhibitors Identified as Aggregators. [PDF]
Antimicrob Agents Chemother, 2021 RNase P is an essential enzyme responsible for tRNA 5′-end maturation. In most bacteria, the enzyme is a ribonucleoprotein consisting of a catalytic RNA subunit and a small protein cofactor termed RnpA. Several studies have reported small-molecule inhibitors directed against bacterial RNase P that were identified by high-throughput screenings.

An RNA ligase partner for the prokaryotic protein-only RNase P: insights into the functional diversity of RNase P from genome mining [PDF]
mBioRNase P can use either an RNA- or a protein-based active site to catalyze 5′-maturation of transfer RNAs (tRNAs). This distinctive attribute in the biocatalytic repertoire raises questions about the underlying evolutionary driving forces, especially if ...

Structure and mechanistic features of the prokaryotic minimal RNase P [PDF]
eLife, 2021 Endonucleolytic removal of 5’-leader sequences from tRNA precursor transcripts (pre-tRNAs) by ribonuclease P (RNase P) is essential for protein synthesis.

Towards plant resistance to viruses using protein-only RNase P [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 New approaches to plant disease control are important for pathogens that are difficult to control by existing methods. Here, the authors report a potential strategy to combat plant viruses by cytosolic expressed protein-only RNase P and show its ability ...
