STRUCTURE-FUNCTION STUDIES OF THE RMSA CSRA POST-TRANSCRIPTIONAL GLOBAL REGULATOR PROTEIN FAMILY REVEALS A CLASS OF RNA-BINDING STRUCTURE

Overview

The RsmA family of RNA-binding proteins are global post-transcriptional, regulators that mediate extensive changes in gene expression in bacteria., They bind to, and affect the translation rate of target mRNAs, a function, that is further modulated by one or more, small, untranslated competitive, regulatory RNAs. To gain new insights into the nature of this protein/RNA, interaction, we used X-ray crystallography to solve the structure of the, Yersinia enterocolitica RsmA homologue. RsmA consists of a dimeric beta, barrel from which two alpha helices are projected. From structure-based, alignments of the RsmA protein family from diverse bacteria, we identified, key amino acid residues likely to be involved in RNA-binding., Site-specific mutagenesis revealed that arginine at position 44, ...
