Abstract excerpt
Local sequence similarity exists between the subunit 2 of eukaryotic RNA polymerases II and the barnase-type bacterial RNases. The RNase-like domain from the Rpb2 of Schizosaccharomyces pombe was expressed in Escherichia coli as a GST fusion protein and examined for its RNase activity. When the GST fusion protein was incubated in vitro with 32P-labeled RNA, the RNA degradation activity was less than 0.1%, if any,...
