Descriptions
Ribonuclease E (RNase E) is a metal-dependent hydrolytic enzyme that cleaves polymeric ribonucleic acid internally and serves as a central element in RNA metabolism of diverse bacteria. RNase E has a RNase H-like domain that is a pocket of unknown function consisting of acidic residues, which is considered functionally important. The charge-neutralizing changes within RNase H-like domain substantially boost the rate at which substrates are cleaved, indicating that the region provides an autoinhibitory function.
