| UniProt functional annotation for P07998 | |||
| UniProt code: P07998. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Endonuclease that catalyzes the cleavage of RNA on the 3' side of pyrimidine nucleotides. Acts on single-stranded and double- stranded RNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17350650}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=An (RNA) containing cytidine + H(2)O = an (RNA)-3'-cytidine- 3'-phosphate + a 5'-hydroxy-ribonucleotide-3'-(RNA).; EC=4.6.1.18; | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=An (RNA) containing uridine + H(2)O = an (RNA)-3'-uridine-3'- phosphate + a 5'-hydroxy-ribonucleotide-3'-(RNA).; EC=4.6.1.18; | |
| Subunit: | Monomer. Interacts with and forms tight 1:1 complexes with RNH1. Dimerization of two such complexes may occur. Interaction with RNH1 inhibits this protein. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17350650}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Pancreas and other tissues and body fluids (indicating it may have other physiological functions besides its role in digestion). | |
| Ptm: | N-linked glycans are of complex type. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3202829}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the pancreatic ribonuclease family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
