Term Information

Accession: GO:0000178
Name: exosome (RNase complex)
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: exosome (ribonucleasease complex), exosome multienzyme ribonuclease complex
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A ribonuclease complex that has 3-prime to 5-prime exoribonuclease activity and possibly endoribonuclease activity, producing 5-prime-phosphomonoesters. Participates in a multitude of cellular RNA processing and degradation events preventing nuclear export and/or translation of aberrant RNAs. Restricted to processing linear and circular single-stranded RNAs (ssRNA) only. RNAs with complex secondary structures may have to be unwound or pre-processed by co-factors prior to entering the complex, esp if the 3-prime end is structured. Source: PMID:26726035, PMID:17174896, PMID:20531386
Comment: Note that this term should not be confused with 'exosome' used in the context of vesicles released from multivesicular bodies.
