Introduction

Pfam

This family includes RNA12 from S. cerevisiae. That protein contains an RRM domain. This region is C-terminal to that and includes a P-loop motif suggesting this region binds to NTP. The RNA12 proteins is involved in pre-rRNA maturation [1].

InterPro

Mitochondrial escape protein 2 (also known as RNA12) plays a role in maintaining the mitochondrial genome and in controlling mtDNA escape [PUBMED:8514129, PUBMED:8649384]. It is also involved in the regulation of mtDNA nucleotide structure and number [PUBMED:16850347]. Additionally, this protein have a dispensable role in the early maturation of pre-rRNA [PUBMED:1557037].
