Phenotypes of a mutant

• The mutant requires cysteine [Pubmed|17586819]
• strongly reduced [wiki|genetic competence], competence can be restored by overexpression of [gene|08CFA2C72931A75532D4289BC1D18A826DE9F9CA|comK]-[gene|4D76F07D6124D56C7CEBBDAB9E84B2718BF1E7FC|comS] [pubmed|33897624]
• inactivation of [gene|4C630B61249F8F2369E9BFE8A49885D3225DE7B6|nrnA] reduces sporulation efficiency to 5% that of wild type cells; delayed entry into sporulation, reduced [protein|5F24258282F3166B7696B9E9ABC1706E4D06C944|sigG] activity, and production of small forespores [Pubmed|26735940]

The protein

Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

• oligoribonuclease (nanoRNAse), 3',5'-bisphosphate nucleotidase [Pubmed|17586819]
• hydrolyzes oligo(deoxy)ribonucleotides in a 5' 3' direction [Pubmed|28894100,21087930]
• hydrolyzes nano-RNAs in a 3' 5' direction [Pubmed|28894100]
• degradation of pGpG derived from c-di-GMP [pubmed|30249708]
• adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + H₂O --> AMP + phosphate (according to UniProt)

Protein family

• NrnA oligoribonuclease family (single member, according to UniProt)
