Function

[MCE_VACCW] Displays methyltransferase, positive regulation of the poly(A) polymerase and transcription elongation activities. Involved in the modification of both mRNA ends and in intermediate and late gene positive transcription elongation. At the mRNAs 5' end, methylates the ribose 2' OH group of the first transcribed nucleotide, thereby producing a 2'-O-methylpurine cap. At the 3' end, functions as a processivity factor which stimulates the activity of the viral poly(A) polymerase VP55 that creates mRNA's poly(A) tail. In the presence of VP39, VP55 does not dissociate from the RNA allowing tail elongation to around 250 adenylates.^[1] ^[2] ^[3] [PAP1_VACCW] Polymerase that creates the 3'-poly(A) tail of mRNA's.

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Polyadenylation of mRNAs in poxviruses, crucial for virion maturation, is carried out by a poly(A) polymerase heterodimer composed of a catalytic component, VP55, and a processivity factor, VP39. The ATP-gamma-S bound and unbound crystal structures of the vaccinia polymerase reveal an unusual architecture for VP55 that comprises of N-terminal, central or catalytic, and C-terminal domains with different topologies and that differs from many polymerases, including the eukaryotic poly(A) polymerases. Residues in the active site of VP55, located between the catalytic and C-terminal domains, make specific interactions with the adenine of the ATP analog, establishing the molecular basis of ATP recognition. VP55's concave surface docks the globular VP39. A model for RNA primer binding that involves all three VP55 domains and VP39 is proposed. The model supports biochemical evidence that VP39 functions as a processivity factor by partially enclosing the RNA primer at the heterodimer interface.
