Function

DOM34_YEAST Involved in protein translation. Together with HBS1, may function in recognizing stalled ribosomes and triggering endonucleolytic cleavage of the mRNA, a mechanism to release non-functional ribosomes and degrade damaged mRNAs. The complex formed by DOM34 and HBS1 has ribonuclease activity towards double-stranded RNA substrates, but does not cleave single-stranded RNA. Acts as endonuclease; has no exonuclease activity. Increases the affinity of HBS1 for GTP, but nor for GDP. Promotes G1 progression and differentiation and is involved in mitotic and meiotic cell divisions.^{[1] [2] [3]}
