Structural Basis of DEAH/RHA Helicase Activity
DEAH/RHA helicases are members of a large group of proteins collectively termed DExH-box, which also include Ski2-like and NS3/NPH-II helicases. By binding and remodeling DNA and RNA, DEAH/RHA helicases play critical roles in many cellular processes ranging from transcription and splicing to ribosome biogenesis, innate immunity and stress granule formation. While numerous crystal structures of ...
متن کاملStructural basis for the nuclear export activity of Importin13.
Importin13 (Imp13) is a bidirectional karyopherin that can mediate both import and export of cargoes. Imp13 recognizes several import cargoes, which include the exon junction complex components Mago-Y14 and the E2 SUMO-conjugating enzyme Ubc9, and one known export cargo, the translation initiation factor 1A (eIF1A). To understand how Imp13 can perform double duty, we determined the 3.6-Å crysta...
متن کاملStructural basis for the glucan phosphatase activity of Starch Excess4.
Living organisms utilize carbohydrates as essential energy storage molecules. Starch is the predominant carbohydrate storage molecule in plants while glycogen is utilized in animals. Starch is a water-insoluble polymer that requires the concerted activity of kinases and phosphatases to solubilize the outer surface of the glucan and mediate starch catabolism. All known plant genomes encode the g...
متن کاملStructural basis for the antibiotic activity of ketolides and azalides.
The azalide azithromycin and the ketolide ABT-773, which were derived by chemical modifications of erythromycin, exhibit elevated activity against a number of penicillin- and macrolide-resistant pathogenic bacteria. Analysis of the crystal structures of the large ribosomal subunit from Deinococcus radiodurans complexed with azithromycin or ABT-773 indicates that, despite differences in the numb...
متن کاملStructural Basis for the Histone Chaperone Activity of Asf1
Anti-silencing function 1 (Asf1) is a highly conserved chaperone of histones H3/H4 that assembles or disassembles chromatin during transcription, replication, and repair. The structure of the globular domain of Asf1 bound to H3/H4 determined by X-ray crystallography to a resolution of 1.7 Angstroms shows how Asf1 binds the H3/H4 heterodimer, enveloping the C terminus of histone H3 and physicall...
