== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ENDOV_HUMAN ENDOV_HUMAN] Endoribonuclease that specifically cleaves inosine-containing RNAs: cleaves RNA at the second phosphodiester bond 3' to inosine. Has strong preference for single-stranded RNAs (ssRNAs) toward double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs). Cleaves mRNAs and tRNAs containing inosine. Also able to cleave structure-specific dsRNA substrates containing the specific sites 5'-IIUI-3' and 5'-UIUU-3'. Inosine is present in a number of RNAs following editing; the function of inosine-specific endoribonuclease is still unclear: it could either play a regulatory role in edited RNAs, or be involved in antiviral response by removing the hyperedited long viral dsRNA genome that has undergone A-to-I editing.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The 6-aminopurine ring of adenosine (A) can be deaminated to form the 6-oxopurine of inosine (I). Endonuclease Vs (EndoVs) are inosine-specific nucleases that cleave at the second phosphodiester bond 3' to inosine. EndoV proteins are highly conserved in all domains of life, but the bacterial and human enzymes seem to display distinct substrate preferences. While the bacterial enzymes exhibit high cleavage efficiency on various nucleic acid substrates, human EndoV (hEndoV) is most active towards ssRNA but is much less active towards other substrates. However, the structural basis of substrate recognition by hEndoV is not well understood. In this study, the 2.3 A resolution crystal structure of hEndoV was determined and its unusual RNA-cleaving properties were investigated. The enzyme preserves the general `RNase H-like' structure, especially in the wedge motif, the metal-binding site and the hypoxanthine-binding pocket. hEndoV also features several extra insertions and a characteristic four-cysteine motif, in which Cys227 and Cys228, two cysteines that are highly conserved in higher eukaryotes, play important roles in catalysis. The structure presented here helps in understanding the substrate preference of hEndoV catalysis.
