Ribonuclease 3(RNASE3) is cytotoxin and helminthotoxin with low-efficiency ribonuclease activity. RNASE3 possesses a broad diversity of biological activities. RNASE3 protein has shown antibacterial activity such as cytoplasmic membrane depolarization of preferentially Gram-negative and Gram-positive strains and promotes E. coli outer membrane detachment, alteration of the overall cell shape and partial loss of cell content.
