摘要
Endoribonuclease III ( RNase III) plays an important role in the processing of rRNA and mRNAs. It is timely to summarize the most relevant insights obtained during the last years stemming from RNase III. With this aim, the present mini-review provides a wealth of new information focusing on the distribution and architecture of RNase III, substrate recognition, cleavage mechanisms and regulation of gene expression.
