Crystal structure of the third KH domain of human Poly(C)-Binding Protein-2 in complex with C-rich strand of human telomeric DNA
Overview
KH (hnRNP K homology) domains, consisting of approximately 70 amino acid, residues, are present in a variety of nucleic-acid-binding proteins. Among, these are poly(C)-binding proteins (PCBPs), which are important regulators, of mRNA stability and posttranscriptional regulation in general. All PCBPs, contain three different KH domains and recognize poly(C)-sequences with, high affinity and specificity. To reveal the molecular basis of, poly(C)-sequence recognition, we have determined the crystal structure, at, 1.6 A resolution, of PCBP2 KH3 domain in complex with a 7-nt DNA sequence, (5'-AACCCTA-3') corresponding to one repeat of the C-rich strand of human, telomeric DNA. The domain assumes a type-I KH fold in a, betaalphaalphabetabetaalpha configuration. The protein-DNA interface could, be studied in unprecedented detail and is made up of a series of direct, and water-mediated hydrogen bonds between the protein and the DNA, revealing an especially dense network involving several structural water, molecules for the last 2 nt in the core recognition sequence. Unlike, published KH domain structures, the protein crystallizes without, protein-protein contacts, yielding new insights into the dimerization, properties of different KH domains. A nucleotide platform, an interesting, feature found in some RNA molecules, was identified, evidently for the, first time in DNA.
