    What's a GeneRIF?
    1. findings demonstrate the rph-1 mutation leads to synthesis of a truncated functionally inactive RNase PH protein that interferes with the 5'-end maturation of specific tRNAs with short 5' leaders by RNase P in the absence of RppH an RNA pyrophosphohydrolase that converts primary 5' triphosphates into 5' monophosphates; data indicate the presence of the triphosphate interferes with RNase P binding to the pre-tRNA
      Title: The rph-1-Encoded Truncated RNase PH Protein Inhibits RNase P Maturation of Pre-tRNAs with Short Leader Sequences in the Absence of RppH.
    2. Authors narrowed down the sites of interaction in each enzyme to an acidic 16-amino acid region in the carboxy-terminal domain of RNase E and a basic 80-amino acid region in RNase PH including an alpha3 helix
      Title: Ribonuclease PH interacts with an acidic ribonuclease E site through a basic 80-amino acid domain.
    3. These results indicate that RNase PH plays a novel role in the degradation of structured RNAs and provides a potential explanation for the growth defects caused by an absence of the phosphorolytic RNases.
