pfam03880: DbpA (This model is not part of the current CDD release)
DbpA RNA binding domain
This RNA binding domain is found at the C-terminus of a number of DEAD helicase proteins. It is sufficient to confer specificity for hairpin 92 of 23S rRNA, which is part of the ribosomal A-site. However, several members of this family lack specificity for 23S rRNA. These can proteins can generally be distinguished by a basic region that extends beyond this domain.
