SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF ESCHERICHIA COLI NUSB
Overview
We have determined the solution structure of NusB, a transcription, antitermination protein from Escherichia coli. The structure reveals a, novel, all alpha-helical protein fold. NusB mutations that cause a loss of, function (NusB5) or alter specificity for RNA targets (NusB101) are, localized to surface residues and likely affect RNA-protein or, protein-protein interactions. Residues that are highly conserved among, homologs stabilize the protein core. The solution structure of E. coli, NusB presented here resembles that of Mycobacterium tuberculosis NusB, determined by X-ray diffraction, but differs substantially from a solution, structure of E. coli NusB reported earlier.
