More | RNase E is divided into domains of defined function and structure, the tetramer has two nonequivalent subunit interfaces, one of which is mediated by a single, tetrathiol-zinc complex, which we refer to as a Zn-link motif. One or both interfaces organize the active site, which is distinct from the primary site of RNA binding | Escherichia coli |
