GTPase activity of a bacterial SRP-like complex.
We have recently identified a protein (SRPM54) in Mycoplasma mycoides homologous to SRP54, a subunit of the mammalian signal recognition particle (SRP). This protein forms a complex with a mycoplasma RNA related to the RNA component of SRP. We have now demonstrated that the protein has an intrinsic GTPase activity in vitro and kinetic parameters for the enzymatic reaction have been determined. ...
متن کاملProtein Translocation: Checkpoint Role for SRP GTPase Activation
Co-translational protein targeting by the signal recognition particle (SRP) relies on a complex series of structural rearrangements in the SRP and its receptor (SR). In order to precisely coordinate the individual steps, the GTPases of the SRP and the SR form a unique complex in which GTP hydrolysis is activated in a composite active site. A recent study provides new insights on the link betwee...
متن کاملStructure of the complete bacterial SRP Alu domain
The Alu domain of the signal recognition particle (SRP) arrests protein biosynthesis by competition with elongation factor binding on the ribosome. The mammalian Alu domain is a protein-RNA complex, while prokaryotic Alu domains are protein-free with significant extensions of the RNA. Here we report the crystal structure of the complete Alu domain of Bacillus subtilis SRP RNA at 2.5 Å resolutio...
متن کاملRole of SRP RNA in the GTPase cycles of Ffh and FtsY.
The bacterial homologues of the signal recognition particle (SRP) and its receptor, the Ffh*4.5S RNA ribonucleoprotein complex and the FtsY protein, respectively, form a unique complex in which both Ffh and FtsY act as GTPase activating proteins for one another, resulting in the mutual stimulation of GTP hydrolysis by both proteins. Previous work showed that 4.5S RNA enhances the GTPase activit...
متن کاملNucleotide-binding flexibility in ultrahigh-resolution structures of the SRP GTPase Ffh
Two structures of the nucleotide-bound NG domain of Ffh, the GTPase subunit of the bacterial signal recognition particle (SRP), have been determined at ultrahigh resolution in similar crystal forms. One is GDP-bound and one is GMPPCP-bound. The asymmetric unit of each structure contains two protein monomers, each of which exhibits differences in nucleotide-binding conformation and occupancy. Th...
