This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. The yeast nuclear RNase P is responsible for the maturation of the 5' end of precursor tRNAs. There are several lines of evidence that lead us to believe that RNase P has additional substrates and we have recently identified several candidiates. Work to attempt the identification of interacting partners outside the known core of RNase P is being carried out. Using novel affinity tags, we are able to rapidly isolate the holoenzyme and expect to find interacting proteins that were lost during the initial arduous purification that led to the identification of the RNase P core. These interacting partners will be investigated for their roles in the processing of novel substrate candidates recently identified in our lab.

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其他NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 酵母核RNase P负责前体tRNA的5'末端的成熟。有几条证据使我们相信RNase P有额外的底物，我们最近已经确定了几个候选者。 目前正在努力确定核糖核酸酶P已知核心之外的相互作用伙伴。使用新型亲和标签，我们能够快速分离全酶，并期望找到在最初的艰难纯化过程中丢失的相互作用蛋白，从而鉴定RNase P核心。这些相互作用的合作伙伴将调查他们的作用，在处理新的基板候选人最近在我们的实验室。
