Crystal structure of a core spliceosomal protein interface.
The precise excision of introns from precursor mRNAs (pre-mRNAs) in eukaryotes is accomplished by the spliceosome, a complex assembly containing five small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) particles. Human p14, a component of the spliceosomal U2 and U11/U12 snRNPs, has been shown to associate directly with the pre-mRNA branch adenosine early in spliceosome assembly and within the fully assembl...
متن کاملCrystal structure of the spliceosomal 15.5kD protein bound to a U4 snRNA fragment.
We have determined the crystal structure of a spliceosomal RNP complex comprising the 15.5kD protein of the human U4/U6.U5 tri-snRNP and the 5' stem-loop of U4 snRNA. The protein interacts almost exclusively with a purine-rich (5+2) internal loop within the 5' stem-loop, giving an unusual RNA fold characterized by two tandem sheared G-A base pairs, a high degree of purine stacking, and the acco...
متن کاملRe-refinement of the spliceosomal U4 snRNP core-domain structure.
The core domain of small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP), comprised of a ring of seven paralogous proteins bound around a single-stranded RNA sequence, functions as the assembly nucleus in the maturation of U1, U2, U4 and U5 spliceosomal snRNPs. The structure of the human U4 snRNP core domain was initially solved at 3.6 Å resolution by experimental phasing using data with tetartohedral twinni...
متن کاملCrystal structure of the clathrin adaptor protein 1 core.
The heterotetrameric adaptor proteins (AP complexes) link the outer lattice of clathrin-coated vesicles with membrane-anchored cargo molecules. We report the crystal structure of the core of the AP-1 complex, which functions in the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Packing of complexes in the crystal generates an exceptionally long (1,135-A) unit-cell axis, but the 6-fold noncrystallographic redundanc...
متن کاملStructure of spliceosomal ribonucleoproteins
Splicing of the precursors of eukaryotic mRNA and some non-coding RNAs is catalyzed by the 'spliceosome', which comprises five RNA-protein complexes (small nuclear ribonucleoproteins, or snRNPs) that assemble in an ordered manner onto precursor-mRNAs. Much progress has been made in determining the gross morphology of spliceosomal assembly intermediates. Recently, the first crystal structure of ...
