| + | The vaccinia virus protein K3L subverts the mammalian antiviral defense mechanism by inhibiting the RNA-dependent protein kinase PKR. K3L is a structural mimic of PKR's natural substrate, the translation initiation factor eIF2alpha. To further our understanding of K3L inhibitory function and PKR substrate recognition, we have solved the 1.8 A X-ray crystal structure of K3L. The structure consists of a five-strand beta barrel with an intervening helix insert region similar in topology to the functionally divergent S1 domain. Mutational analysis identifies two proximal regions of the K3L structure as possessing specialized PKR binding and inhibitory function. Further analysis reveals that PKR dimerization composes a key switch that regulates both its catalytic activation and its molecular recognition of K3L and eIF2alpha. | ||
