Identification of the Acinetobacter baumannii Ribonuclease P Catalytic Subunit: Cleavage of a Target mRNA in the Presence of an External Guide Sequence

The bacterial ribonuclease P or RNase P holoenzyme is usually composed of a catalytic RNA subunit, M1, and a cofactor protein, C5. This enzyme was first identified for its role in maturation of tRNAs by endonucleolytic cleavage of the pre-tRNA. The RNase P endonucleolytic activity is characterized b...
