Transcription of the human mitochondrial genome produces a vast amount of non-coding antisense RNAs. These RNA species can form G-quadraplexes (G4), which affect their decay. We found that the mitochondrial degradosome, a complex of RNA helicase SUPV3L1 (best known as SUV3) and the ribonuclease PNPT1 (also known as PNPase), together with G4-melting protein GRSF1, is a key player in restricting antisense mtRNAs.
