A novel CHHC Zn-finger domain found in spliceosomal proteins and tRNA modifying enzymes
We report a previously uncharacterized CHHC Zn-finger domain identified in spliceosomal U11-48K proteins, tRNA methyl-transferases TRM13 and gametocyte specific factors. We show that this domain behaves as an independent folding unit and that it stoichiometrically binds zinc in a one-to-one ratio. Based on the conserved sequence features we predict that this domain may function as a RNA recogni...
متن کاملThe GRIP domain – a novel Golgi-targeting domain found in several coiled-coil proteins
Many large coiled-coil proteins are being found associated peripherally with the cytoplasmic face of the organelles of the secretory pathway. Various roles have been proposed for these proteins, including the docking of donor vesicles or organelles to an acceptor organelle prior to fusion, and, in the case of the Golgi apparatus, the stacking of the cisternae [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. Such critical ...
متن کاملS-Adenosyl-S-carboxymethyl-l-homocysteine: a novel cofactor found in the putative tRNA-modifying enzyme CmoA
Uridine at position 34 of bacterial transfer RNAs is commonly modified to uridine-5-oxyacetic acid (cmo(5)U) to increase the decoding capacity. The protein CmoA is involved in the formation of cmo(5)U and was annotated as an S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent (SAM-dependent) methyltransferase on the basis of its sequence homology to other SAM-containing enzymes. However, both the crystal structu...

متن کاملSpliceosomal proteins in plants.
The spliceosome is a large nuclear structure consisting of dynamically interacting RNAs and proteins. This chapter briefly reviews some of the known components and their interactions. Large-scale proteomics and gene expression studies may be required to unravel the many intricate mechanisms involved in splice site recognition and selection.
