    Structural basis for recognition of the intron branch site RNA by splicing factor 1 (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-11-03
    Description: During spliceosome assembly, splicing factor 1 (SF1) specifically recognizes the intron branch point sequence (BPS) UACUAAC in the pre-mRNA transcripts. We show that the KH-QUA2 region of SF1 defines an enlarged KH (hn RNP K) fold which is necessary and sufficient for BPS binding. The 3' part of the BPS (UAAC), including the conserved branch point adenosine (underlined), is specifically recognized in a hydrophobic cleft formed by the Gly-Pro-Arg-Gly motif and the variable loop of the KH domain. The QUA2 region recognizes the 5' nucleotides of the BPS (ACU). The branch point adenosine acting as the nucleophile in the first biochemical step of splicing is deeply buried. BPS RNA recognition suggests how SF1 may facilitate subsequent formation of the prespliceosomal complex A.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liu, Z -- Luyten, I -- Bottomley, M J -- Messias, A C -- Houngninou-Molango, S -- Sprangers, R -- Zanier, K -- Kramer, A -- Sattler, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Nov 2;294(5544):1098-102.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), Meyerhofstrasse 1, D-69117 Heidelberg, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11691992" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of Bcl-xL-Bak peptide complex: recognition between regulators of apoptosis (1997)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1997-02-14
    Description: Heterodimerization between members of the Bcl-2 family of proteins is a key event in the regulation of programmed cell death. The molecular basis for heterodimer formation was investigated by determination of the solution structure of a complex between the survival protein Bcl-xL and the death-promoting region of the Bcl-2-related protein Bak. The structure and binding affinities of mutant Bak peptides indicate that the Bak peptide adopts an amphipathic alpha helix that interacts with Bcl-xL through hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. Mutations in full-length Bak that disrupt either type of interaction inhibit the ability of Bak to heterodimerize with Bcl-xL.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sattler, M -- Liang, H -- Nettesheim, D -- Meadows, R P -- Harlan, J E -- Eberstadt, M -- Yoon, H S -- Shuker, S B -- Chang, B S -- Minn, A J -- Thompson, C B -- Fesik, S W -- P01 A135294/PHS HHS/ -- R37 CA48023/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Feb 14;275(5302):983-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Pharmaceutical Discovery Division, Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, IL 60064, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9020082" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
