  botton Entry name(Acc.no) RNT_ECOLI ( P30014 ; P76896 )
    -  Protein name Ribonuclease T  
    -  Synonyms EC 3.1.13.-, Exoribonuclease T, RNase T  
    -  Gene name Name=rnt; OrderedLocusNames=b1652;  
    -  Comments
  • FUNCTION:Responsible for the end-turnover of tRNA:specifically removes the terminal AMP residue from uncharged tRNA (tRNA-C-C-A). Also appears to be involved in tRNA biosynthesis, especially in strains lacking other exoribonucleases.
  • SUBUNIT:Homodimer.
  • SIMILARITY:Belongs to the RNase T family.
