Structural insights into DNA repair by RNase T--an exonuclease processing 3' end of structured DNA in repair pathways. by Yu-Yuan Hsiao, Woei-Horng Fang, Chia-Chia Lee, Yi-Ping Chen, Hanna S Yuan

“…In contrast, the homodimeric RNase T interacts with the Y-structured DNA by a different binding mode via a single protomer so that the 3' overhang of the Y-structured DNA can be trimmed closely to the duplex region. Our data suggest that RNase T likely processes bulge and bubble DNA in the Endonuclease V-dependent DNA repair, whereas it processes Y-structured DNA in UV-induced and various other DNA repair pathways. …”
