IPR006676

Description

IPR006676 is a tRNA-splicing endonuclease.

<p>tRNA-splicing endonucleases ([ec:3.1.27.9]) catalyse the endonucleolytic cleavage of pre tRNA at the 5' and 3' splice sites to release the intron and produces two half tRNA molecules bearing 5' hydroxyl and 2', 3'-cyclic phosphate termini [[cite:PUB00054270], [cite:PUB00055529]]. The genes encoding these proteins are homologous in eukaryotes and archea. The eukaryotic tRNA-splicing endonucleases are heterotetrameric while the archaeal endonucleases can be split into homodimeric and homotetrameric subgroups.</p>

Associated GO terms

GO predictions are based solely on the InterPro-to-GO mappings published by EMBL-EBI, which are in turn based on the mapping of predicted domains to the InterPro dataset. The InterPro-to-GO mapping was last updated on , while the GO metadata was last updated on .

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Molecular function TRNA-intron endonuclease activity Catalysis of the endonucleolytic cleavage of pre-tRNA, producing 5'-hydroxyl and 2',3'-cyclic phosphate termini, and specifically removing the intron.
Biological process TRNA splicing, via endonucleolytic cleavage and ligation Splicing of tRNA substrates via recognition of the folded RNA structure that brings the 5' and 3' splice sites into proximity and cleavage of the RNA at both the 3' and 5' splice sites by an endonucleolytic mechanism, followed by ligation of the exons.
