Nuclear RNase MRP is required for correct processing of pre-5.8S rRNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Molecular and cellular biology - 1 Dec 1993

Schmitt M E, Clayton D A

Abstract excerpt

RNase MRP is a site-specific ribonucleoprotein endoribonuclease that cleaves RNA from the mitochondrial origin of replication in a manner consistent with a role in priming leading-strand DNA synthesis. Despite the fact that the only known RNA substrate for this enzyme is complementary to mitochon...
