Abstract excerpt
Yeast and human Clp1 proteins are homologous components of the mRNA 3'-cleavage-polyadenylation machinery. Recent studies highlighting an association of human Clp1 (hClp1) with tRNA splicing endonuclease and an intrinsic RNA-specific 5'-OH polynucleotide kinase activity of hClp1 have prompted speculation that Clp1 might play a catalytic role in tRNA splicing in animal cells. Here, we show that expression of hClp1...
