CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF MOORELLA THERMOACETICA SELB(377-511)

Overview

The crystal structure of the first two winged-helix motifs of translation, elongation factor SelB from Moorella thermoacetica has been determined at, 1.1 A resolution. Compared with the previous structure of the two domains, in conjunction with winged-helix modules 3 and 4, the first winged-helix, domain underwent a substantial conformational change during which the, alpha-helical and beta-sheet portions of the element opened up like a, shell. This conformational rearrangement was elicited by a change in the, orientation of Trp396, leading to the disclosure of a bona fide, ligand-binding site in the direct vicinity of Trp396. Additionally, the, C-terminal tail of the second domain followed a different path compared, with the previous structure. It is conceivable that these conformational, ... [(full description)]
