Comments [?]

FUNCTIONDigests double-stranded RNA. Involved in the processing of primary rRNA transcript to yield the immediate precursors to the large and small rRNAs (23S and 16S). Processes some mRNAs, and tRNAs when they are encoded in the rRNA operon. Processes pre-crRNA and tracrRNA of type II CRISPR loci if present in the organism.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=Endonucleolytic cleavage to 5'-phosphomonoester.; EC=3.1.26.3;
COFACTOR Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420;
SUBUNITHomodimer.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.

Comments Often predicted too short. Some Mycoplasmas lack the DRBM domain. Mycoplasma gallisepticum strains have an unknown N-terminal extension of about 400 aa. ROSHA and TRES6 are slightly longer in the middle; ROSHA has 2 DRBM domains.
