abstract = {he 7-methylguanosine triphosphate cap present at the 5' ends of eukaryotic mRNAs plays numerous roles in mRNA expression and metabolism. The identification and studies on cap-binding partners can be significantly advanced using tailored chemical tools such as synthetic cap analogues or RNAs carrying modified cap structures. Here we provide protocols for the production of mRNAs specifically labeled within the 5' cap with a nucleoside capable of being photo-activated, either 6-thioguanosine or 7-methyl-6-thioguanosine, which can be used in photo-cross-linking experiments to identify or characterize cap-binding biomolecules. We also describe a protocol for the cross-linking experiments with capped RNAs to map histone H4 cap-binding pocket.},

abstract = {Most DNA polymerases interact with their cognate processive replication factor through a small peptide, this interaction being absolutely required for their function in vivo. We have solved the crystal structure of a complex between the beta sliding clamp of Escherichia coli and the 16 residue C-terminal peptide of Pol IV (P16). The seven C-terminal residues bind to a pocket located at the surface of one beta monomer. This region was previously identified as the binding site of another beta clamp binding protein, the delta subunit of the gamma complex. We show that peptide P16 competitively prevents beta-clamp-mediated stimulation of both Pol IV and alpha subunit DNA polymerase activities, suggesting that the site of interaction of the alpha subunit with beta is identical with, or overlaps that of Pol IV. This common binding site for delta, Pol IV and alpha subunit is shown to be formed by residues that are highly conserved among many bacterial beta homologs, thus defining an evolutionarily conserved hydrophobic crevice for sliding clamp ligands and a new target for antibiotic drug design.},

abstract = {The crystal structure of ribosomal protein L5 from Thermus thermophilus complexed with a 34-nt fragment comprising helix III and loop C of Escherichia coli 5S rRNA has been determined at 2.5 A resolution. The protein specifically interacts with the bulged nucleotides at the top of loop C of 5S rRNA. The rRNA and protein contact surfaces are strongly stabilized by intramolecular interactions. Charged and polar atoms forming the network of conserved intermolecular hydrogen bonds are located in two narrow planar parallel layers belonging to the protein and rRNA, respectively. The regions, including these atoms conserved in Bacteria and Archaea, can be considered an RNA-protein recognition module. Comparison of the T. thermophilus L5 structure in the RNA-bound form with the isolated Bacillus stearothermophilus L5 structure shows that the RNA-recognition module on the protein surface does not undergo significant changes upon RNA binding. In the crystal of the complex, the protein interacts with another RNA molecule in the asymmetric unit through the beta-sheet concave surface. This protein/RNA interface simulates the interaction of L5 with 23S rRNA observed in the Haloarcula marismortui 50S ribosomal subunit.},

abstract = {To better understand the mechanism by which Ty1 RNase H creates the polypurine tract (PPT) primer, we have demonstrated the polymerase-dependent hydrolytic activity of Ty1 reverse transcriptase (RT) during minus-strand synthesis. Using RNase H and polymerase mutants of the recombinant Ty1 RT protein, we show that the two domains of Ty1 RT can act independently of one another. Our results indicate that RNA/DNA substrates containing a short RNA PPT, which serve as primers for plus-strand DNA synthesis, are relatively resistant to RNase H cleavage. RNA substrates with a correct 5' end but with 3' end extending beyond the plus-strand initiation site were cleaved specifically to generate the correct 3' end of the PPT. Using long RNA/DNA duplexes containing the PPT, we show that Ty1 RT is able to make specific internal cleavages that could generate the plus-strand primer with correct 5' and 3' ends. Long RNA/DNA duplexes with mutations in the PPT or in a U-rich region upstream of the PPT, which abolish plus-strand initiation in vivo, were not cleaved specifically at the 5' end of the PPT. Our work demonstrates that the in vitro enzyme can recapitulate key processes that control proper replication in vivo.},

abstract = {Reverse transcription of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ty1 retrotransposon is primed by tRNA(iMet) base paired to the primer binding site (PBS) near the 5' end of Ty1 genomic RNA. The 10-nucleotide PBS is complementary to the last 10 nucleotides of the acceptor stem of tRNA(iMet). A structural probing study of the interactions between the Ty1 RNA template and the tRNA(iMet) primer showed that besides interactions between the PBS and the 3' end of tRNA(iMet), three short regions of Ty1 RNA, named boxes 0, 1, and 2.1, interact with the T and D stems and loops of tRNA(iMet). To determine if these sequences are important for the reverse transcription pathway of the Ty1 retrotransposon, mutant Ty1 elements and tRNA(iMet) were tested for the ability to support transposition. We show that the Ty1 boxes and the complementary sequences in the T and D stems and loops of tRNA(iMet) contain bases that are critical for Ty1 retrotransposition. Disruption of 1 or 2 bp between tRNA(iMet) and box 0, 1, or 2.1 dramatically decreases the level of transposition. Compensatory mutations which restore base pairing between the primer and the template restore transposition. Analysis of the reverse transcription intermediates generated inside Ty1 virus-like particles indicates that initiation of minus-strand strong-stop DNA synthesis is affected by mutations disrupting complementarity between Ty1 RNA and primer tRNA(iMet).},

abstract = {Retroviruses, including HIV-1 and the distantly related yeast retroelement Ty3, all encode a nucleoprotein required for virion structure and replication. During an in vitro comparison of HIV-1 and Ty3 nucleoprotein function in RNA dimerization and cDNA synthesis, we discovered a bipartite primer-binding site (PBS) for Ty3 composed of sequences located at opposite ends of the genome. Ty3 cDNA synthesis requires the 3' PBS for primer tRNAiMet annealing to the genomic RNA, and the 5' PBS, in cis or in trans, as the reverse transcription start site. Ty3 RNA alone is unable to dimerize, but formation of dimeric tRNAiMet bound to the PBS was found to direct dimerization of Ty3 RNA-tRNAiMet. Interestingly, HIV-1 nucleocapsid protein NCp7 and Ty3 NCp9 were interchangeable using HIV-1 and Ty3 RNA template-primer systems. Our findings impact on the understanding of non-canonical reverse transcription as well as on the use of Ty3 systems to screen for anti-NCp7 drugs.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND: Oligomerization is often necessary for protein activity or regulation and its efficiency is fundamental for the cell. The quaternary structure of a large number of oligomers consists of protomers tightly anchored to each other by exchanged arms or swapped domains. However, nothing is known about how the arms can be kept in a favourable conformation before such an oligomerization. RESULTS: Upon examination of such quaternary structures, we observe an extremely frequent occurrence of proline residues at the point where the arm leaves the protomer. Sequence alignment and site-directed mutagenesis confirm the importance of these prolines. The conservation of these residues at the hinge regions can be explained by the constraints that they impose on polypeptide conformation and dynamics: by rigidifying the mainchain, prolines favour extended conformations of arms thus favouring oligomerization, and may prevent interaction of the arms with the core of the protomer. CONCLUSIONS: Hinge prolines can be considered as 'quaternary structure helpers'. The presence of a proline should be considered when searching for a determinant of oligomerization with arm exchange and could be used to engineer synthetic oligomers or to displace a monomers to oligomers equilibrium by mutation of this proline residue.},

In tRNA(Asp) the main primary cleavages occurred at positions U33, G34 and U35 in the anticodon-loop and the lower one at position C20:1 in the D-loop. No primary cleavages were observed within the double-stranded stems. Because ChS nuclease has (i) a low molecular weight, (ii) a wide pH range of action (5.0 to 7.5) (iii) no divalent cation requirement in the reaction mixture and (iv) can be obtained as a pure protein in rather large quantities it appeared to be a very good tool for secondary and tertiary structural studies of RNAs.},

The crystal structure, at 2.3 A resolution, of a bleomycin resistance protein of 14 kDa reveals a structure in two halves with the same alpha/beta fold despite no sequence similarity. The crystal packing shows compact dimers with a hydrophobic interface and involved in mutual chain exchange. Two independent solution studies (analytical centrifugation and light scattering) showed that this dimeric form is not a packing artefact but is indeed the functional one. Furthermore, light scattering also showed that one dimer binds two antibiotic molecules as expected. A crevice located at the dimer interface, as well as the results of a site-directed mutagenesis study, led to a model wherein two bleomycin molecules are completely sequestered by one dimer. This provides a novel insight into antibiotic resistance due to drug sequestering, and probably also into drug transport and excretion.},

abstract = {Reverse transcription of the yeast retrotransposon Ty1 is primed by the cytoplasmic initiator methionine tRNA (tRNA(iMet)). The primer tRNA(iMet) is packaged inside virus-like particles (VLPs) and binds to a 10 nucleotides minus-strand primer binding site, the (-)PBS, complementary to its 3' acceptor stem. We have found that three short sequences of the Ty1 RNA (box 1, box 2.1 and box 2.2) located 3' to the (-)PBS are complementary to other regions of the primer tRNA(iMet) (T psi C and DHU stems and loops). Reconstitution of reverse transcription in vitro with T7 transcribed Ty1 RNA species and tRNA(iMet) purified from yeast cells shows that the boxes do not affect the efficiency of reverse transcription. Thus the role of the boxes on packaging of the primer tRNA(iMet) into the VLPs was investigated by analysing the level of tRNA(iMet) packaged into mutant VLPs. Specific nucleotide changes in the (-)PBS or in the boxes that do not change the protein coding sequence but disrupt the complementarity with the primer tRNA(iMet) within the VLPs. We propose that base pairing between the primer tRNA(iMet) and the Ty1 RNA is of major importance for tRNA(iMet) packaging into the VLPs. Moreover the intactness of the boxes is essential for retrotransposition as shown by the transposition defect of a Ty1 element harboring an intact (-)PBS and mutated boxes.},
