PP7 Coat Protein Dimer
Overview
The cocrystal structure of the PP7 bacteriophage coat protein in complex, with its translational operator identifies a distinct mode of, sequence-specific RNA recognition when compared to the well-characterized, MS2 coat protein-RNA complex. The structure reveals the molecular basis of, the PP7 coat protein's ability to selectively bind its cognate RNA, and it, demonstrates that the conserved beta-sheet surface is a flexible, architecture that can evolve to recognize diverse RNA hairpins.
