The exosome, an evolutionarily conserved complex of multiple 3'--&gt;5' exoribonucleases, is responsible for a variety of RNA processing and degradation events in eukaryotes. In this report Arabidopsis thaliana AtRrp4p is shown to be an active 3'--&gt;5' exonuclease that requires a free 3'-hydroxyl and degrades RNA hydrolytically and distributively, releasing nucleoside 5'-monophosphate products. AtRrp4p behaves as an approximately 500 kDa species during sedimentation through a 10-30% glycerol gradient, co-migrating with AtRrp41p, another exosome subunit, and it interacts in vitro with AtRrp41p, suggesting that it is also present in the plant cell as a subunit of the exosome. We found that, in addition to a previously reported S1-type RNA-binding domain, members of the Rrp4p family of proteins contain a KH-type RNA-binding domain in the C-terminal half and show that either domain alone can bind RNA. However, only the full-length protein is capable of degrading RNA and interacting with AtRrp41p.

Arabidopsis thaliana exosome subunit AtRrp4p is a hydrolytic 3'->5' exonuclease containing S1 and KH RNA-binding domains
