Protein-peptide complex
Overview
The Siah family of RING proteins function as ubiquitin ligase components, contributing to the degradation of multiple targets involved in cell, growth, differentiation, angiogenesis, oncogenesis, and inflammation., Previously, a binding motif (degron) was recognized in many of the Siah, degradation targets, suggesting that Siah itself may facilitate substrate, recognition. We report the crystal structure of the Siah in complex with a, peptide containing the degron motif. Binding is within a groove formed in, part by the zinc fingers and the first two beta strands of the TRAF-C, domain of Siah. We show that residues in the degron, previously described, to facilitate binding to Siah, interact with the protein. Mutagenesis of, Siah at sites of interaction also abrogates both in vitro peptide binding, and destabilization of a known Siah target.
