RNA binding Pentatricopeptide Repeat Protein (Uracil)

The Pentatricopeptide Repeat Proteins (PPR) are 35 amino acid long subunits, that specifically bind one of the RNA bases. The specificity is determined by the amino acids in position 3 and 34. Multiple PPRs can be assembled into one protein.


This part is the uracil binding PPR.


It can be assembled to a RNA binding Protein when combined with the other PPRs:

Adenine:BBa_K3657006

Cytosine:BBa_K3657008

Guanine:BBa_K3657009

Usage and Biology

PPRs are originally found in Arabidopsis thaliana and can bind RNA. In chloroplasts, they take part in many post-translational regulation processes.
