Structural Basis for Regulation of RNA-Binding Proteins by Phosphorylation
Ribonucleoprotein complexes involved in pre-mRNA splicing and mRNA decay are often regulated by phosphorylation of RNA-binding proteins. Cells use phosphorylation-dependent signaling pathways to turn on and off gene expression. Not much is known about how phosphorylation-dependent signals transmitted by exogenous factors or cell cycle checkpoints regulate RNA-mediated gene expression at the ato...
متن کاملStructural Basis for Substrate Selection by T7 RNA Polymerase
The mechanism by which nucleotide polymerases select the correct substrate is of fundamental importance to the fidelity of DNA replication and transcription. During the nucleotide addition cycle, pol I DNA polymerases undergo the transition from a catalytically inactive "open" to an active "closed" conformation. All known determinants of substrate selection are associated with the "closed" stat...
متن کاملStructural basis for double-stranded RNA processing by Dicer.
The specialized ribonuclease Dicer initiates RNA interference by cleaving double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) substrates into small fragments about 25 nucleotides in length. In the crystal structure of an intact Dicer enzyme, the PAZ domain, a module that binds the end of dsRNA, is separated from the two catalytic ribonuclease III (RNase III) domains by a flat, positively charged surface. The 65 angstr...
متن کاملStructural basis for RNA 3'-end recognition by Hfq.
The homohexameric (L)Sm protein Hfq is a central mediator of small RNA-based gene regulation in bacteria. Hfq recognizes small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) specifically, despite their structural diversity. This specificity could not be explained by previously described RNA-binding modes of Hfq. Here we present a distinct and preferred mode of Hfq-RNA interaction that involves the direct recognition ...
متن کاملStructural basis for active site closure by the poliovirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase.
Positive-strand RNA viruses include a large number of human and animal pathogens whose essential RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRPs) share a structurally homologous core with an encircled active site. RdRPs are targets for antiviral drug development, but these efforts are hindered by limited structural information about the RdRP catalytic cycle. To further our understanding of RdRP function, ...
