SIGNAL RECOGNITION PARTICLE ALU RNA BINDING HETERODIMER, SRP9/14
Overview
The mammalian signal recognition particle (SRP) is an 11S cytoplasmic, ribonucleoprotein that plays an essential role in protein sorting. SRP, recognizes the signal sequence of the nascent polypeptide chain emerging, from the ribosome, and targets the ribosome-nascent chain-SRP complex to, the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The SRP consists of six polypeptides, (SRP9, SRP14, SRP19, SRP54, SRP68 and SRP72) and a single 300 nucleotide, RNA molecule. SRP9 and SRP14 proteins form a heterodimer that binds to the, Alu domain of SRP RNA which is responsible for translation arrest. We, report the first crystal structure of a mammalian SRP protein, that of the, mouse SRP9/14 heterodimer, determined at 2.5 A resolution. SRP9 and SRP14, are found to be structurally homologous, containing the same, ... [(full description)]
