Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) catalyze the site-specific, conversion of adenosine to inosine in primary mRNA transcripts, thereby, affecting coding potential of mature mRNAs. Structural determinants that, define the adenosine moieties for specific ADARs-mediated deaminations are, currently unknown. We report the solution structure of the central region, of the human R/G stem-loop pre-mRNA, a natural ADAR2 substrate encoding, the subunit B of the glutamate receptor (R/G site). The structure reveals, that the GCU(A/C)A pentaloop that is conserved in mammals and birds adopts, a novel fold. The fold is stabilized by a complex interplay of hydrogen, bonds and stacking interactions. We propose that this new pentaloop, structure is an important determinant of the R/G site recognition by, ADAR2.

Solution structure of the central region of the human GluR-B R/G pre-mRNA

Overview

Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) catalyze the site-specific conversion of adenosine to inosine in primary mRNA transcripts, thereby affecting coding potential of mature mRNAs. Structural determinants that define the adenosine moieties for specific ADARs-mediated deaminations are currently unknown. We report the solution structure of the central region of the human R/G stem-loop pre-mRNA, a natural ADAR2 substrate encoding the subunit B of the glutamate receptor (R/G site). The structure reveals that the GCU(A/C)A pentaloop that is conserved in mammals and birds adopts a novel fold. The fold is stabilized by a complex interplay of hydrogen bonds and stacking interactions. We propose that this new pentaloop structure is an important determinant of the R/G site recognition by ADAR2.
