A model for the complex between E. coli RNase HI and the DNA/RNA hybrid (previously refined by molecular dynamics simulations) was used to determine the impact of the internucleotide linkage modifications (either 3-O-CH2-P-O-5' or 3-O-P-CH2-O-5) on the ability of the modified-DNA/RNA hybrid to create a complex with the protein. Modified internucleotide linkages were incorporated systematically at different positions close to the 3-end of the DNA strand to interfere with the DNA binding site of RNase H. Altogether, six trajectories were produced (length 1.5ns). Mutual hydrogen bonds connecting both strands of the nucleic acids hybrid, DNA with RNase H, RNA with RNase H, and the scissile bond with the Mg++. 4H2O chelate complex (bound in the active site) were analyzed in detaiL Many residues were involved in binding of the DNA (Arg88, Asn84, Trp85, Trp104, Tyr73, Lys99, Asn100, Thr43, and Asn 16) and RNA (Gln76, Gln72, Tyr73, Lys122, Glu48, Asn44, and Cys13) strand to the substrate-binding site of the RNase H enzyme. The most remarkable disturbance of the hydrogen bonding net was observed for structures with modified internucleotide linkages positioned in a way to interact with the Trp104, Tyr73, Lys99, and Asn100 residues (situated in the middle of the DNA binding site, where a cluster of Trp residues forms a rigid core of the protein structure). 相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of the β-subunit of protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase was determined. The β-subunit contained four methionine residues. Thus, five peptides were obtained after cleavage of the carboxymethylated β-subunit with cyanogen bromide, and were isolated on Sephadex G-75 column chromatography. The amino acid sequences of the cyanogen bromide peptides were established by characterization of the peptides obtained after digestion with trypsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, or Staphylococcus aureus protease. The major sequencing techniques used were automated and manual Edman degradations. The five cyanogen bromide peptides were aligned by means of the amino acid sequences of the peptides containing methionine purified from the tryptic hydrolysate of the carboxymethylated β-subunit. The amino acid sequence of all the 238 residues was as follows: ProAlaGlnAspAsnSerArgPheValIleArgAsp ArgAsnTrpHis ProLysAlaLeuThrPro-Asp — TyrLysThrSerIleAlaArg SerProArgGlnAla LeuValSerIleProGlnSer — IleSerGluThrThrGly ProAsnPheSerHisLeu GlyPheGlyAlaHisAsp-His — AspLeuLeuLeuAsnPheAsn AsnGlyGlyLeu ProIleGlyGluArgIle-Ile — ValAlaGlyArgValValAsp GlnTyrGlyLysPro ValProAsnThrLeuValGluMet — TrpGlnAlaAsnAla GlyGlyArgTyrArg HisLysAsnAspArgTyrLeuAlaPro — LeuAspProAsn PheGlyGlyValGly ArgCysLeuThrAspSerAspGlyTyrTyr — SerPheArg ThrIleLysProGlyPro TyrProTrpArgAsnGlyProAsnAsp — TrpArgProAla HisIleHisPheGlyIle SerGlyProSerIleAlaThr-Lys — LeuIleThrGlnLeuTyr PheGluGlyAspPro LeuIleProMetCysProIleVal — LysSerIleAlaAsn ProGluAlaValGlnGln LeuIleAlaLysLeuAspMetAsnAsn — AlaAsnProMet AsnCysLeuAlaTyr ArgPheAspIleValLeuArgGlyGlnArgLysThrHis PheGluAsnCys. The sequence published earlier in summary form (Iwaki et al., 1979, J. Biochem.86, 1159–1162) contained a few errors which are pointed out in this paper. 相似文献

NH2-terminal sequence analysis was performed on subregions of human plasma fibronectin including 24,000-dalton (24K) DNA-binding, 29,000-dalton (29K) gelatin-binding, and 18,000-dalton (18K) heparin-binding tryptic fragments. These fragments were obtained from fibronectin after extensive trypsin digestion followed by sequential affinity purification on gelatin-Sepharose, heparin-agarose, and DNA-cellulose columns. The gelatin-binding fragment was further purified by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, and the DNA-binding and heparin-binding fragments were further purified by high-performance liquid chromatography. The 29K fragment had the following NH2-terminal sequence: AlaAlaValTyrGlnProGlnProHisProGlnProPro (Pro)TyrGlyHis HisValThrAsp(His)(Thr)ValValTyrGly(Ser) ?(Ser)?-Lys. The NH2-terminal sequence of a 50K, gelatin-binding, subtilisin fragment by L. I. Gold, A. Garcia-Pardo, B. Prangione, E. C. Franklin, and E. Pearlstein (1979, Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA76, 4803–4807) is identical to positions 3–19 (with the exception of some ambiguity at position 14) of the 29K fragment. These data strongly suggest that the 29K tryptic fragment is included in the 50K subtilisin fragment, and that subtilisin cleaves fibronectin between the Ala2Val3 residues of the 29K tryptic fragment. The 18K heparin-binding fragment had the following NH2-terminal sequence: (Glu)AlaProGlnProHisCysIleSerLysTyrIle LeuTyrTrpAspProLysAsnSerValGly?(Pro) LysGluAla?(Val)(Pro). The 29K gelatin-binding and 18K heparin-binding fragments have proline-rich NH2-terminal sequences suggesting that they may have arisen from protease-sensitive, random coil regions of fibronectin corresponding to interdomain regions preceding macromolecular-binding domains. Both of these fragments contain the identical sequence ProGlnProHis, a sequence which may be repeated in other interdomain regions of fibronectin. The 24K DNA-binding fragment has the following NH2-terminal sequence: SerAspThrValProSerProCysAspLeuGlnPhe ValGluValThrAspVal LysValThrIleMetTrpThrProProGluSerAla ValThrGlyTyrArgVal AspValCysProValAsnLeuProGlyGluHisGly Gln(Cys)LeuProIleSer. The sequence of positions 9–22 are homologous to positions 15–28 of the α chain of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase from Escherichia coli. The homology observed suggests that this stretch of amino acids may be a DNA-binding site. 相似文献

Attempts to alter the guanine specificity of ribonuclease T1 (RNase T1) by rational or random mutagenesis have failed so far. The RNase T1 variant RV (Lys41Glu, Tyr42Phe, Asn43Arg, Tyr45Trp, and Glu46Asn) designed by combination of a random and a rational mutagenesis approach, however, exhibits a stronger preference toward adenosine residues than wild-type RNase T1. Steady state kinetics of the cleavage reaction of the two dinucleoside phosphate substrates adenylyl-3',5'-cytidine and guanylyl-3',5'-cytidine revealed that the ApC/GpC ratio of the specificity coefficient (k(cat)/K(m)) was increased approximately 7250-fold compared to that of the wild-type. The crystal structure of the nucleotide-free RV variant has been refined in space group P6(1) to a crystallographic R-factor of 19.9% at 1.7 A resolution. The primary recognition site of the RV variant adopts a similar conformation as already known from crystal structures of RNase T1 not complexed to any nucleotide. Noteworthy is a high flexibility of Trp45 and Asn46 within the three individual molecules in the asymmetric unit. In addition to the kinetic studies, these data indicate the participation of Asn46 in the specific recognition of the base and therefore a specific binding of adenosine. 相似文献

We employ NMR structure determination, thermodynamics, and enzymatics to uncover the structural, thermodynamic and enzymatic properties of α/β-ODNs containing 3′-3′ and 5′-5′ linkages. RNase H studies show that α/β-gapmers that are designed to target erbB-2 efficiently elicit RNase H activity. NMR structures of DNA · DNA and DNA · RNA duplexes reveal that single α-anomeric residues fit well into either duplex, but alter the dynamic properties of the backbone and deoxyriboses as well as the topology of the minor groove in the DNA · RNA hybrid. 相似文献

The purpose of this work was to study the binding properties of two pandemic influenza A virus 1918 H1N1 (SC1918) and 2009 H1N1 (CA09) hemagglutinin (HA) with avian and human receptors. The quantum chemical calculations have been performed to analyze the interactions of 130 loop, 190 helix, 220 loop region, and conserved residues 95,145,153–155, of pandemic viruses’ HA with sialo-trisaccharide receptor of avian and human using density functional theory. The HA’s residues Tyr 95, Ala 138, Gln 191, Arg 220, and Asp 225 from the above regions have stronger interaction with avian receptor. The residues Thr 136, Trp 153, His 183, and Asp 190 of HA are important and play a significant role to bind with human receptor. The residues Tyr 95, Ala 138, Lys 145, Trp 153, Gln 192, and Gln 226 of HA of CA09 virus have found more interaction energies with human than avian receptors. Due to mutations in the active residues of HA of CA09 virus comparing with SC1918, the binding capabilities of HA with human have been increased. The molecular dynamics simulation was made to understand the different dynamical properties of HA and molecular interactions between HA of these two viruses with sialo-trisaccharide receptors of avian and human receptors. The interaction energy of HA of CA09 virus with human receptor decreases due to the human receptor far away from conserved residue region of HA protein. This reveals that the conserved residues particularly Lys 145 play major contribution to interaction with human receptor in HA of CA09 virus. 相似文献

To elucidate a role of the Src homology 3 (SH3)-conserved acidic residue Asp21 of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) SH3 domain, structural changes induced by the D21N mutation (Asp21 --> Asn) were examined by circular dichroism (CD) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopies. In the previous study, we demonstrated that environmental alterations occurred at the side chains of Trp55 and some Tyr residues from the comparison of the near-UV CD spectra of the PI3K SH3 domain with or without a D21N mutation [Okishio, N., et al. (2000) Biopolymers 57, 208-217]. In this work, the affected Tyr residues were identified as Tyr14 and Tyr73 by the CD analysis of a series of mutants, in which every single Tyr residue was replaced by a Phe residue with or without a D21N mutation. The (1)H and (15)N resonance assignments of the PI3K SH3 domain and its D21N mutant revealed that significant chemical shift changes occurred to the aromatic side-chain protons of Trp55 and Tyr14 upon the D21N mutation. All these aromatic residues are implicated in ligand recognition. In addition, the NMR analysis showed that the backbone conformations of Lys15-Asp23, Gly54-Trp55, Asn57-Gly58, and Gly67-Pro70 were affected by the D21N mutation. Furthermore, the (15)N[(1)H] nuclear Overhauser effect values of Tyr14, Glu19, and Glu20 were remarkably changed by the mutation. These results show that the D21N mutation causes structural deformation of more than half of the ligand binding cleft of the domain and provide evidence that Asp21 plays an important role in forming a well-ordered ligand binding cleft in cooperation with the RT loop (Lys15-Glu20). 相似文献

Abstract Ribonuclease T1 (RNase T1) cleaves the phosphodiester bond of RNA specifically at the 2′-end of guanosine. 2′-guanosinemonophosphate (2′-GMP) acts as inhibitor for this reaction and was cocrystallized with RNase T1. X-Ray analysis provided insight in the geometry of the active site and in the parts of the enzyme involved in the recognition of guanosine. RNase T1 is globular in shape and consists of a 4.5 turns α-helix lying “below” a four-stranded antiparallel β-sheet containing recognition center as well as active site. The latter is indicated by the position of phosphate and sugar residues of 2′-GMP and shows that Glu58, His92 and Arg77 are active in phosphodiester hydrolysis. Guanine is recognized by a stretch of protein from Tyr42 to Tyr45. Residues involved in recognition are peptide NH and C=O, guanine O6 and N1H which form hydrogen bonds and a stacking interaction of Tyr45 on guanine. Although, on a theoretical basis, many specific amino acid-guanine interactions are possible, none is employed in the RNase T1.guanine recognition. 相似文献

Solution structures of DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes, d(GCGCA*AA*ACGCG): r(cgcguuuugcg)d(C) (designated PP57), containing two C8-propynyl 2′-deoxyadenosines (A*) and unmodified hybrid (designated U4A4) are solved. The C8-propynyl groups on 2′-deoxyadenosine perturb the local structure of the hybrid duplex, but overall the structure is similar to that of canonical DNA/RNA hybrid duplex except that Hoogsteen hydrogen bondings between A* and U result in lower thermal stability. RNase H is known to cleave RNA only in DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes. Minor groove widths of hybrid duplexes, sugar puckerings of DNA are reported to be responsible for RNase H mediated cleavage, but structural requirements for RNase H mediated cleavage still remain elusive. Despite the presence of bulky propynyl groups of PP57 in the minor groove and greater flexibility, the PP57 is an RNase H substrate. To provide an insight on the interactions between RNase H and substrates we have modeled Bacillus halodurans RNase H-PP57 complex, our NMR structure and modeling study suggest that the residue Gly(15) and Asn(16) of the loop residues between first β sheet and second β sheet of RNase HI of Escherichia coli might participate in substrate binding. 相似文献

A series of novel (3′-amino-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-yl) sulfamic acid derivatives were designed as nonphosphonate-based phosphotyrosy (pTyr) mimetics, synthesized and screened for use as HPTPβ inhibitors. Compounds C22 and C2 showed favorable HPTPβ inhibitory activity and better selectivity for HPTPβ than for PTP1B and SHP2. Docking results suggested that compounds C2 and C22 could not only efficiently fit into the catalytic site of the HPTPβ enzyme but also interact with the Lys1807, Arg1809 and Lys1811 residues of the secondary binding site, which was next to the catalytic center of the enzyme. The mode of interaction of the synthesized compound with the protein was different from the one found in a complex crystal of small molecules with HPTPβ (2I4H), in which the inhibitory molecule formed hydrogen bonds with the Gln1948 and Asn1735 residues of the secondary binding site. 相似文献

We have investigated the roles played by C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions in RNA binding proteins. There was an average of 55 C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions per protein and also there was an average of one significant C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interaction for every nine residues in the 59 RNA binding proteins studied. Main-chain to side-chain C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions is the predominant type of interactions in RNA binding proteins. The donor atom contribution to C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions was mainly from Phe, Tyr, Trp, Pro, Gly, Lys, His and Ala residues. The acceptor atom contribution to main-chain to side-chain C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi and side-chain to side-chain C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions was mainly from Phe and Tyr residues. On the contrary, the acceptor atoms of Trp residues contributed to all the four types of C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions. Also, Trp contributed both donor and acceptor atoms in main-chain to side-chain, main-chain to side-chain five-member aromatic ring and side-chain to side-chain C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions. The secondary structure preference analysis of C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interacting residues showed that, Arg, Gln, Glu, His, Ile, Leu, Lys, Met, Phe and Tyr preferred to be in helix, while Ala, Asp, Cys, Gly, Trp and Val preferred to be in strand conformation. Long-range C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions are the predominant type of interactions in RNA binding proteins. More than 50% of C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interacting residues had a higher conservation score. Significant percentage of C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interacting residues had one or more stabilization centers. Seven percent of the theoretically predicted stabilizing residues were also involved in C-Hcdots, three dots, centeredpi interactions and hence these residues may also contribute additional stability to RNA binding proteins. 相似文献

The DNA polymerase and ribonuclease H (RNase H) activities of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) are needed for the replication of the viral genome and are validated drug targets. However, there are no approved drugs inhibiting RNase H and the efficiency of DNA polymerase inhibitors can be diminished by the presence of drug resistance mutations. In this context, drugs inhibiting both activities could represent a significant advance towards better anti-HIV therapies. We report on the mechanisms of allosteric inhibition of a newly synthesized isatin-based compound designated as RMNC6 that showed IC50 values of 1.4 and 9.8 μM on HIV-1 RT-associated RNase H and polymerase activities, respectively. Blind docking studies predict that RMNC6 could bind two different pockets in the RT: one in the DNA polymerase domain (partially overlapping the non-nucleoside RT inhibitor [NNRTI] binding pocket), and a second one close to the RNase H active site. Enzymatic studies showed that RMNC6 interferes with efavirenz (an approved NNRTI) in its binding to the RT polymerase domain, although NNRTI resistance-associated mutations such as K103N, Y181C and Y188L had a minor impact on RT susceptibility to RMNC6. In addition, despite being naturally resistant to NNRTIs, the polymerase activity of HIV-1 group O RT was efficiently inhibited by RMNC6. The compound was also an inhibitor of the RNase H activity of wild-type HIV-1 group O RT, although we observed a 6.5-fold increase in the IC50 in comparison with the prototypic HIV-1 group M subtype B enzyme. Mutagenesis studies showed that RT RNase H domain residues Asn474 and Tyr501, and in a lesser extent Ala502 and Ala508, are critical for RMNC6 inhibition of the endonuclease activity of the RT, without affecting its DNA polymerization activity. Our results show that RMNC6 acts as a dual inhibitor with allosteric sites in the DNA polymerase and the RNase H domains of HIV-1 RT. 相似文献

Ribonuclease NT (RNase NT), induced upon tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infection in Nicotiana glutinosa leaves, has a broad base specificity. The crystal structures of RNase NT in complex with either 5'-AMP, 5'-GMP, or 2'-UMP were determined at 1.8 A resolutions by molecular replacement. RNase NT consists of seven helices and seven beta strands, and the structure is highly similar to that of RNase NW, a guanylic acid preferential RNase from the N. glutinosa leaves, showing root mean square deviation (rmsd) of 1.1 A over an entire length of two molecules for Calpha atoms. The complex structures revealed that Trp42, Asn44, and Trp50 are involved in interactions with bases at B1 site (primary site), whereas Gln12, Tyr17, Ser78, Leu79, and Phe89 participate in recognition of bases at B2 site (subsite). The 5'-GMP and 5'-AMP bind both B1 and B2 sites in RNase NT, while 2'-UMP predominantly binds B1 site in the complex. The nucleotide binding modes in these complexes would provide a clue to elucidation of structural basis for the broad base specificity for RNase NT. 相似文献

We have investigated the roles played by C-H...O=C interactions in RNA binding proteins. There was an average of 78 CH...O=C interactions per protein and also there was an average of one significant CH...O=C interactions for every 6 residues in the 59 RNA binding proteins studied. Main chain-Main chain (MM) CH...O=C interactions are the predominant type of interactions in RNA binding proteins. The donor atom contribution to CH...O=C interactions was mainly from aliphatic residues. The acceptor atom contribution for MM CH...O=C interactions was mainly from Val, Phe, Leu, Ile, Arg and Ala. The secondary structure preference analysis of CH...O=C interacting residues showed that, Arg, Gln, Glu and Tyr preferred to be in helix, while Ala, Asp, Cys, Gly, Ile, Leu, Lys, Met, Phe, Trp and Val preferred to be in strand conformation. Most of the CH...O=C interacting polar amino acid residues were solvent exposed while, majority of the CH...O=C interacting non polar residues were excluded from the solvent. Long and medium-range CH...O=C interactions are the predominant type of interactions in RNA binding proteins. More than 50% of CH...O=C interacting residues had a higher conservation score. Significant percentage of CH...O=C interacting residues had one or more stabilization centers. Sixty-six percent of the theoretically predicted stabilizing residues were also involved in CH...O=C interactions and hence these residues may also contribute additional stability to RNA binding proteins. 相似文献

Protein-DNA interactions facilitate the fundamental functions of living cells and are universal in all living organisms. Several investigations have been carried out, essentially identifying pairs of interactions between the amino acid residues in proteins and the bases in DNA. In the present study, we have detected the recognition motifs that may constitute a cluster of spatially interacting residues in proteins, which interact with the bases of DNA. Graph spectral algorithm has been used to detect side chain clusters comprising Arg, Lys, Asn, Gln and aromatic residues from proteins interacting with DNA. We find that the interaction of proteins with DNA is through clusters in about half of the proteins in the dataset and through individual residues in the rest. Furthermore, inspection of the clusters has revealed additional interactions in a few cases, which have not been reported earlier. The geometry of the interaction between the DNA base and the protein residue is quantified by the distance d and the angle theta. These parameters have been identified for the cation-pi/H-bond stair motif that was reported earlier. Among the Arg, Lys, Asn and Gln residues, the range of (d, theta) values of the interacting Arg clearly falls into the cation-pi and the hydrogen bond interactions of the 'cation-pi/H-bond' stair motif. Analysis of the cluster composition reveals that the Arg residue is predominant than the Lys, Asn and Gln residues. The clusters are classified into Type I and Type II based on the presence or absence of aromatic residues (Phe, Tyr) in them. Residue conservation in these clusters has been examined. Apart from the conserved residues identified previously, a few more residues mainly Phe, Tyr and Arg have also been identified as conserved and interactive with the DNA. Interestingly, a few residues that are parts of interacting clusters and do not interact directly with the DNA have also been conserved. This emphasizes the importance of recognizing the protein side chain cluster motifs interacting with the DNA, which could serve as signatures of protein-DNA recognition in the families of DNA binding proteins. 相似文献
