FunctionQ6L6Q4_GEOSE Endonuclease that specifically degrades the RNA of RNA-DNA hybrids.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00053][SAAS:SAAS00088233] Publication Abstract from PubMedRibonuclease H3 from Bacillus stearothermophilus (Bst-RNase H3) has the N-terminal TBP-like substrate-binding domain. To identify the substrate binding site in this domain, the mutant proteins of the intact protein and isolated N-domain, in which six of the seventeen residues corresponding to those involved in DNA binding of TBP are individually mutated to Ala, were constructed. All of them exhibited decreased enzymatic activities and/or substrate-binding affinities when compared to those of the parent proteins, suggesting that the N-terminal domain of RNase H3 uses the flat surface of the beta-sheet for substrate binding as TBP to bind DNA. This domain may greatly change conformation upon substrate binding.
