UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q7TMF2 (Q7TMF2)
Gene Name:
Eri1
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: RNA exonuclease that binds to the 3'-end of histone mRNAs and degrades them, suggesting that it plays an essential role in histone mRNA decay after replication. A 2' and 3'-hydroxyl groups at the last nucleotide of the histone 3'-end is required for efficient 3'-end histone mRNA exonuclease activity and degradation of RNA substrates. Also able to degrade the 3'-overhangs of short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in vitro, suggesting a possible role as regulator of RNA interference (RNAi). Required for binding the 5'-ACCCA-3' sequence present in stem-loop structure. Able to bind other mRNAs (By similarity). Required for 5.8S rRNA 3'-end processing. Also binds to 5.8s ribosomal RNA (PubMed:18438418). Binds with high affinity to the stem-loop structure of replication-dependent histone pre-mRNAs. In vitro, does not have sequence specificity. In vitro, has weak DNA exonuclease activity. In vitro, shows biphasic kinetics such that there is rapid hydrolysis of the last three unpaired RNA nucleotides in the 39 flanking sequence followed by a much slower cleavage through the stem that occurs over a longer incubation period in the order of hours (By similarity). ERI1-mediated RNA metabolism plays a key role in chondrogenesis (PubMed:37352860)
