Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
crystals are composed of a trans-acting form of the Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis ribozyme with a single 2'-deoxyribose substitution at the cleavage site, which traps the RNA in the precleavage state. These crystals yield an accurate structure of the RNA to 1.7 A resolution Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. tengcongensis

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
G40A mutant with exchanged guanine is inactive. The 2.7 A resolution crystal structure of the mutant shows that the RNA is in a conformation nearly identical to that of the wild-type glmS ribozyme. The experimental electron density maps indicate that GlcN6P binds to the G40A mutant in the same location as in the wild-type ribozyme. Raman pH titrations of GlcN6P using crystals of the G40A mutant glmS ribozyme show that the pKa of the amine of the ribozyme-bound GlcN6P differs substantially for the wild-type and G40A mutant ribozymes Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. tengcongensis

Cofactor

Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
additional information glmS ribozyme employs a small-molecule cofactor. Binding of D-glucosamine 6-phosphate (GlcN6P) uncovers the latent self-cleavage activity of the RNA, which adopts a catalytically competent conformation that is nonetheless inactive in the absence of GlcN6P Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. tengcongensis
