This entry represents the RNA recognition motif (RRM) of Rrp7A, a homologue of yeast ribosomal RNA-processing protein 7 (Rrp7p), and mainly found in Metazoa. Rrp7p is an essential yeast protein involved in pre-rRNA processing and ribosome assembly, and is speculated to be required for correct assembly of rpS27 into the pre-ribosomal particle []. In contrast, the cellular function of Rrp7A remains unclear currently. Rrp7A harbors an N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM) and a C-terminal Rrp7 domain.
