Crystal structure of ribosomal protein L27 from Thermus thermophilus HB8
Overview
Ribosomal protein L27 is located near the peptidyltransferase center at the interface of ribosomal subunits, and is important for ribosomal assembly and function. We report the crystal structure of ribosomal protein L27 from Thermus thermophilus HB8, which was determined by the multiwavelength anomalous dispersion method and refined to an R-factor of 19.7% (R(free) = 23.6%) at 2.8 A resolution. The overall fold is an all beta-sheet hybrid. It consists of two sets of four-stranded beta-sheets formed around a well-defined hydrophobic core, with a highly positive charge on the protein surface. The structure of ribosomal protein L27 from T. thermophilus HB8 in the RNA-free form is investigated, and its functional roles in the ribosomal subunit are discussed.
