A novel experimental approach for the selective isolation and characterization of human RNase MRP
RNA Biology, 2022 RNase MRP is a ribonucleoprotein complex involved in the endoribonucleolytic cleavage of different RNAs. Mutations in the RNA component of the RNP are the cause of cartilage hair hypoplasia.

Silencing Antibiotic Resistance with Antisense Oligonucleotides
Biomedicines, 2021 Antisense technologies consist of the utilization of oligonucleotides or oligonucleotide analogs to interfere with undesirable biological processes, commonly through inhibition of expression of selected genes.

Function and assembly of a chromatin-associated RNase P that is required for efficient transcription by RNA polymerase I. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 Human RNase P has been initially described as a tRNA processing enzyme, consisting of H1 RNA and at least ten distinct protein subunits. Recent findings, however, indicate that this catalytic ribonucleoprotein is also required for transcription of small ...

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.

A functional RNase P protein subunit of bacterial origin in some eukaryotes [PDF]
, 2011 RNase P catalyzes 5′-maturation of tRNAs. While bacterial RNase P comprises an RNA catalyst and a protein cofactor, the eukaryotic (nuclear) variant contains an RNA and up to ten proteins, all unrelated to the bacterial protein.

A novel mechanism of RNase L inhibition: Theiler\u27s virus L* protein prevents 2-5A from binding to RNase L [PDF]
, 2018 The OAS/RNase L pathway is one of the best-characterized effector pathways of the IFN antiviral response. It inhibits the replication of many viruses and ultimately promotes apoptosis of infected cells, contributing to the control of virus spread ...

Zebrafish RNase T2 genes and the evolution of secretory ribonucleases in animals
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009 Background Members of the Ribonuclease (RNase) T2 family are common models for enzymological studies, and their evolution has been well characterized in plants.

Inhibition of Murine Cytomegalovirus Infection in Animals by RNase P-Associated External Guide Sequences. [PDF]
, 2017 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.

Evolution of ribonuclease H genes in prokaryotes to avoid inheritance of redundant genes
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 Branches Out from RNP to Protein: Organelle-Triggered Diversification? [PDF]
, 2012 RNase P is the enzyme that removes 5′ leader sequences from precursor tRNAs. Remarkably, in most organisms, RNase P is a ribonucleoprotein particle where the RNA component is responsible for catalysis. In this issue of Genes \u26 Development, Gutmann and
