    basic FUNCTION
  • beta subunit of the ribonuclease H2 enzyme complex which cleaves ribonucleotides from RNA: DNA duplexes
  • may function to degrade RNA/DNA hybrids during cell death to avoid nucleic acid-mediated immune activation
  • ribonuclease H enzymes that specifically recognize RNA/DNA hybrids and hydrolyze the ribonucleotide-containing polynucleotide strand
  • SAMHD1, TREX1, and RNase H2 participate in a cellular nucleic acid metabolic pathway that overlaps the interferon-mediated innate antiviral and inflammatory responses
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component RNase H2 is a heterotrimeric complex of the RNase H2A, RNase H2B, and RNase H2C proteins that are all required for proper function and activity
    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • RNASEH2A interfaces mostly with the RNase H2C subunit that is intricately interwoven with the RNase H2B subunit
  • cell & other
