'''RNase P'' processing the 5′ end of pre-[[Transfer RNA (tRNA)|transfer RNAs]] as well as other RNA molecules.<ref>PMID:28697848</ref>. Most RNase Ps are complexes of proteins and RNAs, termed ribonucleoprotein complexes; however, a few protein-only RNase Ps have been described.<ref>PMID:23322041</ref>

In eukaryotes, the RNase P proteins have been found to have other roles. For example, many of the proteins are shared with a related RNase P, the small nucleolar RNase MRP, that is involved in processing ribosomal RNA.<ref>PMID:19395864</ref> In yeast, the proteins of RNase P also bind telomerase.<ref>PMID:27156450</ref>
