Exosome complex exonuclease MTR3 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the EXOSC6 gene. [5] [6] [7]
This gene product constitutes one of the subunits of the multisubunit particle called the exosome complex, which mediates mRNA degradation. The composition of human exosome is similar to its yeast counterpart. This protein is homologous to the yeast Mtr3 protein. Its exact function is not known, however, it has been shown using a cell-free RNA decay system that the exosome is required for rapid degradation of unstable mRNAs containing AU-rich elements (AREs), but not for poly(A) shortening. The exosome does not recognize ARE-containing mRNAs on its own, but requires ARE-binding proteins that could interact with the exosome and recruit it to unstable mRNAs, thereby promoting their rapid degradation.

Exosome component 6 has been shown to interact with Exosome component 7, [6] Exosome component 8 [6] and Exosome component 1. [6]
The exosome complex is a multi-protein intracellular complex capable of degrading various types of RNA molecules. Exosome complexes are found in both eukaryotic cells and archaea, while in bacteria a simpler complex called the degradosome carries out similar functions.
Sjögren syndrome type B antigen (SS-B) also known as Lupus La protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SSB gene.
Exosome component 2, also known as EXOSC2, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the EXOSC2 gene.
Exosome component 10, also known as EXOSC10, is a human gene, the protein product of which is part of the exosome complex and is an autoantigen is patients with certain auto immune diseases, most notably scleromyositis.
Exosome complex exonuclease RRP44 or Dis3 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DIS3 gene. Its protein product is an RNase enzyme homologous to the yeast protein Rrp44, and can be part of the exosome complex in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.

Ribonuclease P protein subunit p38 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the RPP38 gene.
RNA component of mitochondrial RNA processing endoribonuclease, also known as RMRP, is a human gene.
Nuclear nucleic acid-binding protein C1D is a protein that in humans is encoded by the C1D gene. The C1D protein is encoded by a DNA binding gene traced in the nucleus. Protein C1D has a chromosomal location of 2p14. C1D has a family of proteins consisting of C1D homologues which may include Sas10 domains. C1D is thought to bind to RNA and DNA where it may be involved in mechanisms of DNA repair. Protein C1D is ubiquitously expressed in different human tissues.
