Interpro abstract (IPR008594): | This entry represents scavenger mRNA decapping enzymes, such as Dcp2 and DcpS. DcpS is a scavenger pyrophosphatase that hydrolyses the residual cap structure following 3' to 5' mRNA degradation. DcpS uses cap dinucleotides or capped oligonucleotides as substrate to release m(7)GMP (N7-methyl GMP), while Dcp2 uses capped mRNA as substrate in order to hydrolyse the cap to release m(7)GDP (N7-methyl GDP) [ (PUBMED:16246173) ]. The association of DcpS with 3' to 5' exonuclease exosome components suggests that these two activities are linked and there is a coupled exonucleolytic decay-dependent decapping pathway. The family contains a histidine triad (HIT) sequence with three histidines separated by hydrophobic residues [ (PUBMED:16001405) ]. The central histidine within the DcpS HIT motif is critical for decapping activity and defines the HIT motif as a new mRNA decapping domain, making DcpS the first member of the HIT family of proteins with a defined biological function. This family is related to ( IPR001310 ). |
GO process: | deadenylation-dependent decapping of nuclear-transcribed mRNA (GO:0000290) |
