Protein Domain : RNA editing complex, structural subunit MP63

Primary Identifier  IPR017086 Type  Family
Short Name  RNA_edit_cplx_Nase-su_MP63
description  This entry represents structural subunit MP63 from the RNA editing complex found in Trypanosoma and Leishmania. The editing process is performed by the editosome, a multi-protein complex that catalyses the insertion and deletion of uridylates (U) that occurs during RNA editing. Uridylate insertion/deletion editing, which appears to be unique to these organisms, processes most mitochondrial pre-mRNAs to produce mature mRNAs. Editosomes consist of several components and in Trypanosoma these include: REL1/MP52 and REL2/Mp48 RNA ligases; MP18, MP42, MP63 and MP81 that contain zinc fingers [].
