Function | 3'-to-5'exoribonuclease that preferentially degrades DNA and RNA oligonucleotides composed of only two nucleotides (PubMed:31588022, PubMed:30926754, PubMed:32365187, PubMed:23741365). Binds and degrades longer oligonucleotides with a lower affinity (PubMed:31588022, PubMed:30926754, PubMed:32365187). Plays dual roles in mitochondria, scavenging nanoRNAs (small RNA oligonucleotides of <5 nucleotides) that are produced by the degradosome and clearing short RNAs that are generated by RNA processing (PubMed:31588022, PubMed:30926754, PubMed:32365187). Essential for correct initiation of mitochondrial transcription, degrading mitochondrial RNA dinucleotides to prevent RNA-primed transcription at non-canonical sites in the mitochondrial genome (PubMed:31588022). Essential for embryonic development (By similarity). |

Background
Nucleases are components of DNA and RNA metabolism thatcarry out functions in DNA repair, replication, and recombinationand in RNA processing and degradation. SFN is a homolog of Orn, a3-prime-to-5-prime exoribonuclease of E. coli that attacks the free3-prime hydroxyl group on single-stranded RNA, releasing 5-primemononucleotides in a sequential manner.
