| PF20912 | DNA-directed RNA polymerase III subunit RPC3, helical hairpin domain | domain |
This domain is found in the subunit RPC3 (also known as RPC62) of the eukaryotic DNA-directed RNA polymerase III, which synthesises small RNAs, such as 5S rRNA and tRNAs. RPC3 shows four defined domains folded around a fifth C-terminal domain consisting of two long alpha- helices (this entry). This domain appears to be reminiscent of coiled- coil motifs [1].
