Tri- to be mono- for bacterial mRNA decay.
Messing et al. (2009) report the homodimeric structure of the Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus RppH pyrophosphohydrolase, which hydrolyzes the mRNA 5' triphosphate to initiate bacterial mRNA decay. These structures reveal insights into BdRppH substrate recognition and analogies to eukaryotic decapping enzymes.
