1Q67 - PubMed Abstract: 
A major pathway of eukaryotic mRNA turnover begins with deadenylation, followed by decapping and 5'-->3' exonucleolytic degradation. A critical step in this pathway is decapping, which is carried out by an enzyme composed of Dcp1p and Dcp2p. The crystal structure of Dcp1p shows that it markedly resembles the EVH1 family of protein domains ...
