Biochemical Differences and Similarities between the DEAD-Box Helicase Orthologs DDX3X and Ded1p.

Abstract:

:DDX3X is a conserved DEAD-box RNA helicase involved in translation initiation and other processes of RNA metabolism. Mutations in human DDX3X and deregulation of its expression are linked to tumorigenesis and intellectual disability. The protein is also targeted by diverse viruses. Previous studies demonstrated helicase and NTPase activities for DDX3X, but important biochemical features of the enzyme remain unclear. Here, we systematically characterize enzymatic activities of human DDX3X and compare these to its closely related Saccharomyces cerevisiae ortholog Ded1p. We show that DDX3X, like Ded1p, utilizes exclusively adenosine triphosphates to unwind helices, oligomerizes to function as efficient RNA helicase, and does not unwind DNA duplexes. The ATPase activity of DDX3X is markedly stimulated by RNA and weaker by DNA, although DNA binds to the enzyme. For RNA unwinding, DDX3X shows a greater preference than Ded1p for substrates with unpaired regions 3' to the duplex over those with 5' unpaired regions. DDX3X separates longer RNA duplexes faster than Ded1p and is less potent than Ded1p in facilitating strand annealing. Our results reveal that the biochemical activities of human DDX3X are typical for DEAD-box RNA helicases, but diverge quantitatively from its highly similar S. cerevisiae ortholog Ded1p.

  • Selection of Streptomyces griseus protease B mutants with desired alterations in primary specificity using a library screening strategy.

    abstract::Streptomyces griseus protease B (SGPB) has primary specificity for large hydrophobic residues. The protease is secreted in a promature form, and autocatalytic removal of the propeptide is essential for activity. We genetically substituted the P1 Leu at the promature junction of SGPB with Phe, Met, or Val and monitored...
