Introduction

Pfam

This domain is a endoribonuclease [1]. Specifically it cleaves an intron from Hac1 mRNA in humans, which causes it to be much more efficiently translated.

InterPro

The proteins listed below share a common architecture with a protein kinase homology domain (see PROSITEDOC) followed by an ~135-residue globular kinase-extension nuclease (KEN) domain made of eight helices [PUBMED:18191223]:
