exonuclease domain-containing protein
This family includes a variety of exonuclease proteins, such as ribonuclease T and the epsilon subunit of DNA polymerase III.; [1]. 8506149. RNase T shares conserved sequence motifs with DNA proofreading exonucleases. Koonin EV, Deutscher MP;. Nucleic Acids Res 1993;21:2521-2522. (from Pfam)
ribonuclease T
This HMM describes ribonuclease T, an enzyme found so far only in gamma-subdivision Proteobacteria such as Escherichia coli and Xylella fastidiosa. Ribonuclease T is homologous to the DNA polymerase III alpha chain. It can liberate AMP from the common C-C-A terminus of uncharged tRNA. It appears also to be involved in RNA maturation. It also acts as a 3' to 5' single-strand DNA-specific exonuclease; it is distinctive for its ability to remove residues near a double-stranded stem. Ribonuclease T is a high copy suppressor in E. coli of a uv-repair defect caused by deletion of three other single-stranded DNA exonucleases.
