Structure of the Sm binding site from human U4 snRNA derived from a 3 ns PME molecular dynamics simulation.

Abstract:

:A molecular dynamics simulation of the Sm binding site from human U4 snRNA was undertaken to determine the conformational flexibility of this region and to identify RNA conformations that were important for binding of the Sm proteins. The RNA was fully-solvated (>9,000 water molecules) and charge neutralized by inclusion of potassium ions. A three nanosecond MD simulation was conducted using AMBER with long-range electrostatic forces considered using the particle mesh Ewald summation method. The initial model of the Sm binding site region had the central and 3' stem-loops that flanked the Sm site co-axial with one another, and with the single-stranded Sm binding site region ([I] conformation). During the course of the trajectory, the axes of the 3' stem-loop, and later the central stem-loop, became roughly orthogonal from their original anti-parallel orientation. As these conformational changes occurred, the snRNA adopted first an [L] conformation, and finally a [U] conformation. The [U] conformation was more stable than either the [I] or [L] conformations, and persisted for the final 1 ns of the trajectory. Analysis of the structure resulting from the MD simulations revealed the bulged nucleotide, U114, and the mismatched Ag91-G110 base pair provided distinctive structural features that may enhance Sm protein binding. Based on the results of the MD simulation and the available experimental data, we proposed a mechanism for the binding of the Sm protein sub-complexes to the snRNA. In this model, the D1/D2 and E/F/G Sm protein sub-complexes first bind the snRNA in the [U] conformation, followed by conformational re-arrangement to the [I] conformation and binding of the D3/B Sm protein sub-complex.
