Abstract excerpt
We show that structural type A and B bacterial ribonuclease P (RNase P) RNAs can fully replace each other in vivo despite the many reported differences in their biogenesis, biochemical/biophysical properties and enzyme function in vitro. Our findings suggest that many of the reported idiosyncrasies of type A and B enzymes either do not reflect the in vivo situation or are not crucial for RNase P function in vivo,...
