The 3.1 A crystal structure of the long-form Trz1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae shows Trz1 is organized into 2 beta-lactamase domains connected by a long linker. The N-terminal domain has lost its catalytic residues, but keeps the long flexible arm important for tRNA binding, but it is the opposite in the C-terminal domain. Trz1 likely evolved from a duplication and fusion of the gene for the monomeric short form RNase Z.
Title: The crystal structure of Trz1, the long form RNase Z from yeast.

The yeast tRNA 3' endonuclease tRNase Z, Trz1, is catalyzing endonucleolytic tRNA 3' processing.
Title: tRNA 3' processing in yeast involves tRNase Z, Rex1, and Rrp6.

The findings reveal that 3' end processing is a limiting step for defective tRNA maturation and demonstrate that overexpression of scTRZ1 can promote defective tRNA 3' processing in vivo.

AthTRZ1 shows a high affinity for Zn2+ ions
Title: Metal requirements and phosphodiesterase activity of tRNase Z enzymes.

In this work, we show that the yeast homolog of ELAC2, encoded by TRZ1 (tRNase Z 1), is involved genetically in RNA processing.
