1.25 Å resolution structure of an RNA 20-mer that binds to the TREX2 complex
نویسندگان
چکیده
The 1.25 Å resolution H32:R crystal structure of a 20 nt ribonucleotide that binds to the TREX-2 complex with high affinity shows a double-stranded RNA duplex arranged along a crystallographic 31 axis in which the antiparallel chains overlap by 18 nucleotides and are related by a crystallographic twofold axis. The duplex shows C-A, U-U and C-C noncanonical base pairings together with canonical Watson-Crick A-U and G-C pairs and a G-U wobble.

In this paper, the mer-Co(NH3)3(NO2)3 complex was used as a new precursor for synthesizing spinel-type cobalt oxide nanoparticles (Co3O4NPs).Thermal decomposition of the complex at low temperature (175 °C) resulted in the Co3O4NPs without using expensive and toxic solvents or complicated equipment. XRD, FT-IR, SEM, EDX, and TEM were employed to characterize the product, and its optical and magn...

Protein synthesis is one of the most complex cellular processes, involving numerous translation components that interact in multiple sequential steps. The most complex stage in protein synthesis is the initiation process. The basal set of factors required for translation initiation has been determined, and biochemical, genetic, and structural studies are now beginning to reveal details of their...
متن کاملThe nature of the TRAP-Anti-TRAP complex.
Tryptophan biosynthesis is subject to exquisite control in species of Bacillus and has become one of the best-studied model systems in gene regulation. The protein TRAP (trp RNA-binding attenuation protein) predominantly forms a ring-shaped 11-mer, which binds cognate RNA in the presence of tryptophan to suppress expression of the trp operon. TRAP is itself regulated by the protein Anti-TRAP, w...

The synthesis of [Cu3O(OAc)6(H2O)3]Cl.CH3OH.6H2O is described. The X-ray crystallographic study of thecomplex revealed an isosceles triangle of copper atoms with a triply bridging oxo atom nearly in the plane of thetriangle. The coordination sphere around each metal center is close to distorted octahedral and the central{Cu3(μ3-O)} core is planar. Every two copper atoms were connected to each o...
متن کاملStructural basis for binding the TREX2 complex to nuclear pores, GAL1 localisation and mRNA export
The conserved Sac3:Thp1:Sem1:Sus1:Cdc31 (TREX2) complex binds to nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) and, in addition to integrating mRNA nuclear export with preceding steps in the gene expression pathway, facilitates re-positioning of highly regulated actively transcribing genes (such as GAL1) to NPCs. Although TREX2 is thought to bind NPC protein Nup1, defining the precise role of this interaction ...
