TUNGSTATE DERIVATIVE OF STREPTOMYCES ANTIBIOTICUS PNPASE/ GPSI ENZYME
Overview
BACKGROUND: Polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase) is a polyribonucleotide, nucleotidyl transferase (E.C.2.7.7.8) that degrades mRNA in prokaryotes., Streptomyces antibioticus PNPase also assays as a guanosine 3'-diphosphate, 5'-triphosphate (pppGpp) synthetase (E.C.2.7.6.5). It may function to, coordinate changes in mRNA lifetimes with pppGpp levels during the, Streptomyces lifecycle. RESULTS: The structure of S. antibioticus PNPase, without bound RNA but with the phosphate analog tungstate bound at the, PNPase catalytic sites was determined by X-ray crystallography and shows a, trimeric multidomain protein with a central channel. The structural core, has a novel duplicated architecture formed by association of two, homologous domains. The tungstate derivative structure reveals the ... [(full description)]
