CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF HUMAN PUS10, A NOVEL PSEUDOURIDINE SYNTHASE.

Overview

Pseudouridine (Psi) synthases catalyze the formation of one or more, specific Psis in structured RNAs. Five families of Psi synthases have been, characterized based on sequence homology. Pus10 has no significant, sequence homology to these defined families and therefore represents a new, family of Psi synthases. Initial characterization studies show that an, archael Pus10 catalyzes the universally conserved Psi55 in tRNA. We, present here the crystal structure of human Pus10 at 2.0 A resolution, which is the first structural description from this novel Psi synthase, family. Pus10 is a crescent-shaped molecule with two domains, the, universally conserved Psi synthase catalytic domain and a THUMP-containing, domain, which is unique to the Pus10 family. Superposition of the, catalytic ... [(full description)]
