We developed a ribonuclease for site-specific targeting and cleavage of single-stranded RNA. The engineered RNase protein was constructed by incorporating two independent functional domains, an RNase HI domain that could cleave the RNA strand in a DNA-RNA hybrid, and a domain of the RHAU protein tha...
