Function[RNBR_BACAM] Hydrolyzes phosphodiester bonds in RNA, poly- and oligoribonucleotides resulting in 3'-nucleoside monophosphates via 2',3'-cyclophosphate intermediates. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedIn addition to the common use of glutaraldehyde to nonspecifically cross-link protein crystals through lysine residues disposed on the surface of the protein, the use of gentle vapour diffusion of glutaraldehyde offers a convenient way to limit polymerization and to allow slow diffusion throughout the crystal. In the case of trimeric barnase crystals, a specific cross-link was observed between an lysine side chain and an arginine side chain that were spatially disposed at the ideal distance on the protein surface in the three monomers. Here, the direct observation of a specific Lys-Arg cross-link site is reported and a mechanism is proposed for the reaction.
