Primary Identifier | IPR016521 | Type | Family |
Short Name | RNA-processing_Lsm12 |
description | Sm and Sm-like proteins of the Lsm (like Sm) domain family are generally involved in essential RNA-processing tasks []. All the LSM proteins are evolutionarily conserved in eukaryotes with an N-terminal Lsm domain to bind nucleic acids followed by as yet uncharacterised C-terminal region, some of which have a C-terminal methyltransferase domain. This family includes fungal Sm-like protein 12 (LSM12), which is possibly involved in mRNA degradation or tRNA splicing []. |
