Abstract excerpt
The multisubunit eukaryotic exosome is an essential RNA processing and degradation machine. In its nuclear form, the exosome associates with the auxiliary factor Rrp6p, which participates in both RNA processing and degradation reactions. The crystal structure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rrp6p displays a conserved RNase D core with a flanking HRDC (helicase and RNase D C-terminal) domain in an unusual conformation...
