Substrate specificity of human MCPIP1 endoribonuclease

Abstract MCPIP1, also known as Regnase-1, is a ribonuclease crucial for regulation of stability of transcripts related to inflammatory processes. Here, we report that MCPIP1 acts as an endonuclease by degrading several stem-loop RNA structures and single-stranded RNAs. Our studies revealed cleavage...
