X-RAY STRUCTURE OF THE RNASE DOMAIN OF THE YEAST POP2 PROTEIN
Overview
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a large complex, known as the Ccr4-Not, complex, containing two nucleases, is responsible for mRNA deadenylation., One of these nucleases is called Pop2 and has been identified by, similarity with PARN, a human poly(A) nuclease. Here, we present the, crystal structure of the nuclease domain of Pop2 at 2.3 A resolution. The, domain has the fold of the DnaQ family and represents the first structure, of an RNase from the DEDD superfamily. Despite the presence of two, non-canonical residues in the active site, the domain displays RNase, activity on a broad range of RNA substrates. Site-directed mutagenesis of, active-site residues demonstrates the intrinsic ability of the Pop2 RNase, D domain to digest RNA. This first structure of a nuclease involved in the, 3'-5' ...
