Crystal structure of a conserved hypothetical protein from Chlorobium tepidum
Overview
Structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) proteins are essential in, chromosome condensation and interact with non-SMC proteins in eukaryotes, and with segregation and condensation proteins (ScpA and ScpB) in, prokaryotes. The highly conserved gene in Chlorobium tepidum gi 21646405, encodes ScpB (ScpB_ChTe). The high resolution crystal structure of, ScpB_ChTe shows that the monomeric structure consists of two similarly, shaped globular domains composed of three helices sided by beta-strands [a, winged helix-turn-helix (HTH)], a motif observed in the C-terminal domain, of Scc1, a functionally related eukaryotic ScpA homolog, as well as in, many DNA binding proteins.
