These enzymes are a group of endoribonucleases that are characterized by their ribonuclease domain, which is labelled the RNase III domain. They are ubiquitous compounds in the cell and play a major role in pathways such as RNA precursor synthesis, RNA Silencing, and the pnp autoregulatory mechanism.

They are ubiquitous compounds in the cell and play a major role in pathways such as RNA precursor synthesis, RNA Silencing, and the pnp autoregulatory mechanism. The RNase III superfamily is divided into four known classes: 1, 2, 3, and 4. Each class is defined by its domain structure. Class 1 RNase III Class 2 RNase III Class 3 RNase III Class 4 RNase III
