Function
catalytic activity:Exonucleolytic cleavage in the 3'- to 5'-direction to yield nucleoside 5'-phosphates.,cofactor:Manganese.,function:Exonuclease with specificity for single-stranded RNA and, to a lesser extent for DNA. Degrades RNA at a rate that is approximately 35-fold higher than its rate for single-stranded DNA. Involved in the antiviral function of IFN against RNA viruses.,induction:Induced by interferons alpha and beta. Weaker induction was seen with interferon gamma. Increased expression was seen at the transcriptional level.,miscellaneous:Stable and constitutive expression confers resistance to vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), influenza virus, and encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) infection in HeLa cells, providing an alternative antiviral pathway against RNA genomic viruses. Up regulated by E2 in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer lines.,similarity:Belongs to the exonucl
