BACTERIOPHAGE HK022 NUN-PROTEIN-NUTBOXB-RNA COMPLEX

Overview

Nun protein from coliphage HK022 binds to phage boxB RNA and functions, in, contrast to phage lambda N protein, as a transcriptional terminator. The, basic Nun-(10-44) peptide contains the boxB RNA binding arginine rich, motif, ARM. The peptide binds boxB RNA and competes with the phage lambda, ARM peptide N-(1-36) as indicated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), spectroscopy titrations. In two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enhancement, spectroscopy experiments boxB RNA in complex with Nun-(20-44) exhibits the, same pattern of resonances as it does in complex with N peptides, containing the ARM, and we could show that Nun-(20-44) forms a bent, alpha-helix upon binding to the boxB RNA. The structure of the boxB, RNA-bound Nun-(20-44) was determined on the basis of 191 intra- and 30, intermolecular distance restraints. Ser-24 is anchored to the lower RNA, stem, and stacking of Tyr-39 and A7 is clearly experimentally indicated., Arg-28 shows numerous contacts to the RNA stem. Leu-22, Ile-30, Trp-33, Ile-37, and Leu-41 form a hydrophobic surface, which could be a, recognition site for additional host factors such as NusG. Such a, hydrophobic surface area is not present in N-(1-36) bound to boxB RNA.
