RNases
Contents
RNases are involved in the processing and degradation of the different classes of mRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs and small RNAs
Exoribonucleases
- RNase J1: 5'-3' activity, does also have endonuclease activity
- RNase PH: 3'-5' activity
- YhaM: 3'-5' activity
- RNase R: 3'-5' activity
- polynucleotide phosphorylase: 3'-5' activity
Endoribonucleases
- RNase J1: ssRNA endonuclease, does also have exonuclease activity
- RNase J2: ssRNA endonuclease, may also have exonuclease activity
- [[rnhB|RNase HII]: cleaves RNA in RNA-DNA hybrids
- [[rnhC|RNase HIII]: cleaves RNA in RNA-DNA hybrids
- [[yurI|RNase Bsn]: extracellular RNase
- [[rnc|RNase III]: dsRNA endonuclease
- [[mrnC|mini-III]: dsRNA endonuclease
- [[rnmC|RNase RNase M5]: dsRNA endonuclease
