The protein

Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • removal of pyrophosphate from the 5' end of mRNAs to make RNA accessible for degradation by RNases PubMed
  • RppH requires at least two unpaired nucleotides at the 5' end of its RNA substrates and prefers three or more. The second of these 5'-terminal nucleotides must be G, whereas a less strict preference for a purine is evident at the third position, and A is slightly favored over G at the first position PubMed
  • decapping of NAD-capped RNAs PubMed
  • 8-oxo-dGTP + H2O --> 8-oxo-dGMP + diphosphate + H+ (according to UniProt)
