Role of RNA structure in arginine recognition of TAR RNA.
The human immunodeficiency virus Tat protein binds specifically to an RNA stem-loop structure (TAR) that contains two helical stem regions separated by a three-nucleotide bulge. A single arginine within the basic region of Tat mediates specific binding to TAR, and arginine as the free amino acid also binds specifically to TAR. We have previously proposed a model in which interaction of the argi...
متن کاملthe role of thematic structure in comprehending spoken language
in fact this study is concerned with the relationship between the variation in thematice structure and the comprehension of spoken language. so the study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any relationship between thematic structure and the comprehension of spoken language? 2. which of the themes would have greated thematic force and be easier for the subjects to comprehend? accord...
15 صفحه اولSpecific binding of arginine to TAR RNA.
A single arginine residue within the basic region of the human immunodeficiency virus Tat protein mediates specific binding of Tat peptides to a three-nucleotide bulge in TAR RNA. It has been proposed that arginine recognizes TAR by forming a network of hydrogen bonds with two structurally distinct phosphates, an interaction termed the "arginine fork." Here it is shown that L-arginine blocks th...
متن کاملConformation of the TAR RNA-arginine complex by NMR spectroscopy.
The messenger RNAs of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) have an RNA hairpin structure, TAR, at their 5' ends that contains a six-nucleotide loop and a three-nucleotide bulge. The conformations of TAR RNA and of TAR with an arginine analog specifically bound at the binding site for the viral protein, Tat, were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Upon arginine bin...
متن کاملArginine-mediated RNA recognition: the arginine fork.
Short peptides that contain the basic region of the HIV-1 Tat protein bind specifically to a bulged region in TAR RNA. A peptide that contained nine arginines (R9) also bound specifically to TAR, and a mutant Tat protein that contained R9 was fully active for transactivation. In contrast, a peptide that contained nine lysines (K9) bound TAR poorly and the corresponding protein gave only margina...
