Towards plant resistance to viruses using protein-only RNase P [PDF]
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 ...

Surveillance of RNase P, PMMoV, and CrAssphage in wastewater as indicators of human fecal concentration across urban sewer neighborhoods, Kentucky. [PDF]
Wastewater surveillance has been widely used as a supplemental method to track the community infection levels of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. A gap exists in standardized reporting for fecal indicator concentrations, which can be used

Engineering of RNase P Ribozymes for Therapy against Human Cytomegalovirus Infection [PDF]
Nucleic acid-based gene interference and editing strategies, such as antisense oligonucleotides, ribozymes, RNA interference (RNAi), and CRISPR/Cas9 coupled with guide RNAs, are exciting research tools and show great promise for clinical applications in ...

RNase P: Beyond Precursor tRNA Processing. [PDF]
Abstract Ribonuclease P (RNase P) was first described in the 1970’s as an endoribonuclease acting in the maturation of precursor transfer RNAs (tRNAs). More recent studies, however, have uncovered non-canonical roles for RNase P and its components.

Cleavage kinetics of human mitochondrial RNase P and contribution of its non-nuclease subunits. [PDF]
RNase P is the endonuclease responsible for the 5’-end processing of tRNA precursors (pre-tRNAs). Unlike the single-subunit protein-only RNase P (PRORP) found in plants or protists, human mitochondrial RNase P is a multi-enzyme assembly that in addition ...

The DnaJK chaperone of Bacillus subtilis post-transcriptionally regulates gene expression through the YlxR(RnpM)/RNase P complex [PDF]
To survive in harsh natural environments, translation and mRNA metabolism must be tightly and coordinately controlled, as saving biological costs increases fitness. However, the roles of protein chaperones in this control system are unclear.

RNase P-Mediated Sequence-Specific Cleavage of RNA by Engineered External Guide Sequences
The RNA cleavage activity of RNase P can be employed to decrease the levels of specific RNAs and to study their function or even to eradicate pathogens. Two different technologies have been developed to use RNase P as a tool for RNA knockdown.
