Abstract
The RNA exosome is a multisubunit complex typically composed of a catalytically inactive core and the Rrp44 protein, which contains 3'-to-5' exo- and endo-RNase activities. With assistance from nuclear or cytoplasmic cofactors, functional studies implicated the exosome as a critical player in the turnover of almost all RNA species, including mRNAs, rRNA, tRNAs, and other noncoding RNAs. Here, we describe the purification of the yeast 10-subunit exosome and 11-subunit Exosome-Ski7, as well as subsequent sample screening by negative staining EM and structural analysis by cryo-EM.
