General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution identification in select archaea of an unusual archetype of the RNase P RNA Pyrobaculum sp.
additional information the Pyrobaculum sp. RNase P RNA is about 50% smaller compared to other archaeal RNase Ps Pyrobaculum sp.
physiological function RNase P is a ubiquitous and essential endoribonuclease. It is a catalytic ribonucleoprotein complex that employs an RNA catalyst and Mg2+ ions to cleave precursor RNAs (pre-RNAs) and generate the 5' termini of mature RNAs such as tRNA, 4.5S RNA, tmRNA, and other cellular RNAs Pyrobaculum sp.
