cas21

Gene
cas21
Protein
CRISPR-associated endoribonuclease Cas2 1
Organism
Nitrosomonas europaea (strain ATCC 19718 / CIP 103999 / KCTC 2705 / NBRC 14298)
Length
105 amino acids
Function
CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat), is an adaptive immune system that provides protection against mobile genetic elements (viruses, transposable elements and conjugative plasmids). CRISPR clusters contain sequences complementary to antecedent mobile elements and target invading nucleic acids. CRISPR clusters are transcribed and processed into CRISPR RNA (crRNA). Functions as a ssRNA-specific endoribonuclease. Involved in the integration of spacer DNA into the CRISPR cassette (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the CRISPR-associated endoribonuclease Cas2 protein family.

Protein

Organism
Saccharolobus solfataricus (strain ATCC 35092 / DSM 1617 / JCM 11322 / P2)
Length
101 amino acids
Function
CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat), is an adaptive immune system that provides protection against mobile genetic elements (viruses, transposable elements and conjugative plasmids). CRISPR clusters contain sequences complementary to antecedent mobile elements and target invading nucleic acids. CRISPR clusters are transcribed and processed into CRISPR RNA (crRNA). Involved in the integration of spacer DNA into the CRISPR cassette (By similarity). Functions as a ssRNA-specific endoribonuclease, producing a 5'-phosphomonoester and a 3'-hydroxy. Does not process pre-crRNA in the manner expected if it were the CRISPR-processing endoribonuclease. Prefers U-rich substrates and often cuts between adjacent U residues in regions predicted to be single-stranded. RNAs as short as 10 residues can serve as substrate.
Similarity
Belongs to the CRISPR-associated endoribonuclease Cas2 protein family.
