CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC STRUCTURE OF THE NUCLEASE DOMAIN OF 3'HEXO, A DEDDH FAMILY MEMBER, BOUND TO RAMP
|
OverviewOverview
A human 3'-5'-exoribonuclease (3'hExo) has recently been identified and, shown to be responsible for histone mRNA degradation. Functionally, 3'hExo, and a stem-loop binding protein (SLBP) target opposite faces of a unique, highly conserved stem-loop RNA scaffold towards the 3' end of histone, mRNA, which is composed of a 6 bp stem and a 4 nt loop, followed by an, ACCCA sequence. Its Caenorhabditis elegans homologue, ERI-1, has been, shown to degrade small interfering RNA in vitro and to function as a, negative regulator of RNA interference in neuronal cells. We have, determined the structure of the nuclease domain (Nuc) of 3'hExo complexed, with rAMP in the presence of Mg2+ at 1.6 A resolution. The Nuc domain, adopts an alpha/beta globular fold, with four acidic residues coordinating, a ... [(full description)]
