2E7Y - PubMed Abstract: 
tRNA 3'-processing endoribonuclease (tRNase Z) is one of the enzymes involved in the 3'-end processing of precursor tRNAs and is a member of the metallo-beta-lactamase superfamily. tRNase Z crystal structures have revealed that the enzyme forms a dimer and has a characteristic domain, named a flexible arm or an exosite, which protrudes from the metallo-beta-lactamase core and is involved in tRNA binding ...
