# RloC # RloC
## Description
RloC is a distant homolog of the tRNALys anticodon nuclease (ACNase) [PrrC](/defense-systems/prrc). RloC shares the ABC ATPase motifs and catalytic ACNase triad with PrrC, but it possesses a unique zinc-hook/coiled-coil insert. This distinctive feature results in its ATPase domain bearing similarity to Rad50 and other DNA repair proteins.Contrary to PrrC RloC is rarely linked to a type I R-M system. RloC activity was not directly demonstrated on phages but hypothesized through its similar features to PrrC :ref{doi=10.1111/j.1365-2958.2008.06387.x}.
This system was not experimentally validated but is still considered as a defense system because of its homology with [PrrC](/defense-systems/prrc) and its abundance in [defense islands](/general-concepts/defense-islands). Of the RloC system detected by DefenseFinder around 40% are close to at least one known defense system (20 proteins on each side).
## Molecular Mechanism
RloC was shown to function by tRNA cleavage (wobble nucleotide-excising and Zn++-responsive tRNase) :ref{doi=10.1006/jmbi.1995.0343}. However, such activity was not directly shown on a phage
Zinc hook seems to regulate the nuclease function.
