AbstractHelp

The mRNA capping enzyme in yeasts is composed of two separate subunits, a mRNA guanyltransferase and an RNA 5'-triphosphate. This is the beta subunit of mRNA capping enzyme which has triphosphatase activity [1, 2, 3]. The beta chain (polynucleotide 5'-phosphatase EC:3.1.3.33) converts the 5'-triphosphate end of a nascent mRNA chain into a diphosphate in the first step of mRNA capping. The function of the capping enzyme also depends on the guanylyltransferase activity conferred by the alpha chain (see IPR001339).
