General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution mRPN1 is a homologue of the REN endonucleases Trypanosoma brucei
malfunction inducible knockdown of mRPN1 in Trypanosoma brucei results in loss of gRNA and accumulation of precursor transcripts, consistent with a role of mRPN1 in processing Trypanosoma brucei
additional information four conserved catalytic side-chains E214, D218, D288, and E291 Trypanosoma brucei
physiological function recombinant mRPN1 is a dimeric dsRNA-dependent endonuclease that requires Mg2+, a critical catalytic carboxylate, and generates 2-nucleotide 3' overhangs. Minicircles in the mitochondrial genome encode hundreds of small guide RNAs, gRNAs, that partially anneal with unedited mRNAs and direct the extensive editing. Trypanosoma brucei gRNAs and mRNAs are transcribed as polycistronic precursors, which undergo processing preceding editing. The mitochondrial RNA precursor-processing endonuclease 1, mRPN1, is involved in gRNA biogenesis, overview Trypanosoma brucei
