In enzymology, a RNA-3′-phosphate cyclase (EC 6.5.1.4) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

ATP + RNA 3'-terminal-phosphate AMP + diphosphate + RNA terminal-2',3'-cyclic-phosphate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are ATP and RNA 3'-terminal-phosphate, whereas its 3 products are AMP, diphosphate, and RNA terminal-2',3'-cyclic-phosphate.

This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, specifically those forming phosphoric-ester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is RNA-3'-phosphate:RNA ligase (cyclizing, AMP-forming). This enzyme is also called RNA cyclase.

Structural studies[edit]

As of 2010, three structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1QMH​ and 1QMI​, (un-adenylated)[1] and 3KGD​ (adenylated).[2]
