RMRP RNA
Function:
- nuclear-encoded (RMRP gene) mitochondrial RNA associated with mitochondrial RNA-processing endoribonuclease (RNase MRP) which cleaves mitochondrial RNA complementary to the light chain of the D loop [1]
- TERT interacts with RMRP RNA
- TERT & RMRP form a ribonucleoprotein complex that has
- RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity
- produces double-stranded RNAs that can be processed into siRNA
Laboratory:
- RMRP gene mutation
General
