Publication Abstract from PubMed

Using energy and density guided Rosetta refinement to improve molecular replacement, we determined the crystal structure of the protease encoded by xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV). Despite overall similarity of XMRV protease to other retropepsins, the topology of its dimer interface more closely resembles those of the monomeric, pepsin-like enzymes. Thus, XMRV protease may represent a distinct branch of the aspartic protease family.

Crystal structure of XMRV protease differs from the structures of other retropepsins.,Li M, Dimaio F, Zhou D, Gustchina A, Lubkowski J, Dauter Z, Baker D, Wlodawer A Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2011 Jan 23. PMID:21258323[1]
