Structure-function analysis of the ribozymes of chrysanthemum chlorotic mottle viroid: a loop-loop interaction motif conserved in most natural hammerheads.

Abstract:

:Loop-loop tertiary interactions play a key role in the folding and catalytic activity of natural hammerhead ribozymes. Using a combination of NMR spectroscopy, site-directed mutagenesis and kinetic and infectivity analyses, we have examined the structure and function of loops 1 and 2 of the (+) and (-) hammerheads of chrysanthemum chlorotic mottle viroid RNA. In both hammerheads, loop 1 is a heptanucleotide hairpin loop containing an exposed U at its 5' side and an extrahelical U at its 3'-side critical for the catalytic activity of the ribozyme in vitro and for viroid infectivity in vivo, whereas loop 2 has a key opened A at its 3'-side. These structural features promote a specific loop-loop interaction motif across the major groove. The essential features of this tertiary structure element, base pairing between the 5' U of loop 1 and the 3' A of loop 2, and interaction of the extrahelical pyrimidine of loop 1 with loop 2, are likely shared by a significant fraction of natural hammerheads.

  • RNA surveillance by uridylation-dependent RNA decay in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

    abstract::Uridylation-dependent RNA decay is a widespread eukaryotic pathway modulating RNA homeostasis. Terminal uridylyltransferases (Tutases) add untemplated uridyl residues to RNA 3'-ends, marking them for degradation by the U-specific exonuclease Dis3L2. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Cid1 uridylates a variety of RNAs. In t...
