Characterization of the Methanomicrobial Archaeal RNase Zs for Processing the CCA-Containing tRNA Precursors

RNase Z is a widely distributed and usually essential endoribonuclease involved in the 3′-end maturation of transfer RNAs (tRNAs). A CCA triplet that is needed for tRNA aminoacylation in protein translation is added by a nucleotidyl-transferase after the 3′-end processing by RNase Z. However, a cons...
