    Methanopyrus kandleri topoisomerase V contains three distinct AP lyase active sites in addition to the topoisomerase active site (2016)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-04-21
    Description: Topoisomerase V (Topo-V) is the only topoisomerase with both topoisomerase and DNA repair activities. The topoisomerase activity is conferred by a small alpha-helical domain, whereas the AP lyase activity is found in a region formed by 12 tandem helix-hairpin-helix ((HhH) 2 ) domains. Although it was known that Topo-V has multiple repair sites, only one had been mapped. Here, we show that Topo-V has three AP lyase sites. The atomic structure and Small Angle X-ray Scattering studies of a 97 kDa fragment spanning the topoisomerase and 10 (HhH) 2 domains reveal that the (HhH) 2 domains extend away from the topoisomerase domain. A combination of biochemical and structural observations allow the mapping of the second repair site to the junction of the 9th and 10th (HhH) 2 domains. The second site is structurally similar to the first one and to the sites found in other AP lyases. The 3rd AP lyase site is located in the 12th (HhH) 2 domain. The results show that Topo-V is an unusual protein: it is the only known protein with more than one (HhH) 2 domain, the only known topoisomerase with dual activities and is also unique by having three AP lyase repair sites in the same polypeptide.

    Tetrathiomolybdate inhibits copper trafficking proteins through metal cluster formation (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-12-08
    Description: Tetrathiomolybdate (TM) is an orally active agent for treatment of disorders of copper metabolism. Here we describe how TM inhibits proteins that regulate copper physiology. Crystallographic results reveal that the surprising stability of the drug complex with the metallochaperone Atx1 arises from formation of a sulfur-bridged copper-molybdenum cluster reminiscent of those found in molybdenum and iron sulfur proteins. Spectroscopic studies indicate that this cluster is stable in solution and corresponds to physiological clusters isolated from TM-treated Wilson's disease animal models. Finally, mechanistic studies show that the drug-metallochaperone inhibits metal transfer functions between copper-trafficking proteins. The results are consistent with a model wherein TM can directly and reversibly down-regulate copper delivery to secreted metalloenzymes and suggest that proteins involved in metal regulation might be fruitful drug targets.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3658115/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3658115/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Alvarez, Hamsell M -- Xue, Yi -- Robinson, Chandler D -- Canalizo-Hernandez, Monica A -- Marvin, Rebecca G -- Kelly, Rebekah A -- Mondragon, Alfonso -- Penner-Hahn, James E -- O'Halloran, Thomas V -- GM38047/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM38784/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM54222/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM038047/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM038784/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM054111/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 GM038784/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Jan 15;327(5963):331-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1179907.

    Molecular basis of metal-ion selectivity and zeptomolar sensitivity by CueR (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-09-06
    Description: The earliest of a series of copper efflux genes in Escherichia coli are controlled by CueR, a member of the MerR family of transcriptional activators. Thermodynamic calibration of CueR reveals a zeptomolar (10(-21) molar) sensitivity to free Cu+, which is far less than one atom per cell. Atomic details of this extraordinary sensitivity and selectivity for +1transition-metal ions are revealed by comparing the crystal structures of CueR and a Zn2+-sensing homolog, ZntR. An unusual buried metal-receptor site in CueR restricts the metal to a linear, two-coordinate geometry and uses helix-dipole and hydrogen-bonding interactions to enhance metal binding. This binding mode is rare among metalloproteins but well suited for an ultrasensitive genetic switch.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Changela, Anita -- Chen, Kui -- Xue, Yi -- Holschen, Jackie -- Outten, Caryn E -- O'Halloran, Thomas V -- Mondragon, Alfonso -- F32 DK61868/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM08382/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM38784/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM51350/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Sep 5;301(5638):1383-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, and Cell Biology, Northwestern University, 2205Tech Drive, Evanston, IL 60208, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12958362" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Basis for structural diversity in homologous RNAs (2004)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2004-10-02
    Description: Large RNA molecules, such as ribozymes, fold with well-defined tertiary structures that are important for their activity. There are many instances of ribozymes with identical function but differences in their secondary structures, suggesting alternative tertiary folds. Here, we report a crystal structure of the 161-nucleotide specificity domain of an A-type ribonuclease P that differs in secondary and tertiary structure from the specificity domain of a B-type molecule. Despite the differences, the cores of the domains have similar three-dimensional structure. Remarkably, the similar geometry of the cores is stabilized by a different set of interactions involving distinct auxiliary elements.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Krasilnikov, Andrey S -- Xiao, Yinghua -- Pan, Tao -- Mondragon, Alfonso -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Oct 1;306(5693):104-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, and Cell Biology, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15459389" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of a bacterial ribonuclease P holoenzyme in complex with tRNA (2010)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2010-11-16
    Description: Ribonuclease (RNase) P is the universal ribozyme responsible for 5'-end tRNA processing. We report the crystal structure of the Thermotoga maritima RNase P holoenzyme in complex with tRNA(Phe). The 154 kDa complex consists of a large catalytic RNA (P RNA), a small protein cofactor and a mature tRNA. The structure shows that RNA-RNA recognition occurs through shape complementarity, specific intermolecular contacts and base-pairing interactions. Soaks with a pre-tRNA 5' leader sequence with and without metal help to identify the 5' substrate path and potential catalytic metal ions. The protein binds on top of a universally conserved structural module in P RNA and interacts with the leader, but not with the mature tRNA. The active site is composed of phosphate backbone moieties, a universally conserved uridine nucleobase, and at least two catalytically important metal ions. The active site structure and conserved RNase P-tRNA contacts suggest a universal mechanism of catalysis by RNase P.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3058908/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3058908/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Reiter, Nicholas J -- Osterman, Amy -- Torres-Larios, Alfredo -- Swinger, Kerren K -- Pan, Tao -- Mondragon, Alfonso -- F32 GM087055/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM058443/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM058443-12/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2010 Dec 9;468(7325):784-9. doi: 10.1038/nature09516.
