Crystal structure of the m3G-cap-binding domain of snurportin1 in complex with a m3GpppG-cap dinucleotideCrystal structure of the m3G-cap-binding domain of snurportin1 in complex with a m3GpppG-cap dinucleotide
Structural highlights
1xk5 is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
SPN1_HUMAN Functions as an U snRNP-specific nuclear import adapter. Involved in the trimethylguanosine (m3G)-cap-dependent nuclear import of U snRNPs. Binds specifically to the terminal m3G-cap U snRNAs.[1]
