Activity and Function in Human Cells of the Evolutionary Conserved Exonuclease Polynucleotide Phosphorylase
Polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase) is a phosphorolytic RNA exonuclease highly conserved throughout evolution. Human PNPase (hPNPase) is located in mitochondria and is essential for mitochondrial function and homeostasis. Not surprisingly, mutations in the <i>PNPT1</i> gene, encoding h...
