Term Name: 3'-tRNA processing endoribonuclease activity
Synonyms: 3 tRNase activity, 3' tRNA processing endoribonuclease activity, 3' tRNase activity, ribonuclease Z activity, RNase Z activity, tRNA 3 endonuclease activity, tRNA 3' endonuclease activity, tRNAse Z
Definition: Catalysis of the endonucleolytic cleavage of RNA, removing extra 3' nucleotides from tRNA precursor, generating 3' termini of tRNAs. A 3'-hydroxy group is left at the tRNA terminus and a 5'-phosphoryl group is left at the trailer molecule.
