RAN-RCC1-SO4 COMPLEX
Structural highlights
FunctionRAN_HUMAN GTP-binding protein involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport. Required for the import of protein into the nucleus and also for RNA export. Involved in chromatin condensation and control of cell cycle (By similarity). The complex with BIRC5/ survivin plays a role in mitotic spindle formation by serving as a physical scaffold to help deliver the RAN effector molecule TPX2 to microtubules. Acts as a negative regulator of the kinase activity of VRK1 and VRK2.[1] [2] [3] [4] Enhances AR-mediated transactivation. Transactivation decreases as the poly-Gln length within AR increases.[5] [6] [7] [8] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedRCC1 (regulator of chromosome condensation), a beta propeller chromatin-bound protein, is the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for the nuclear GTP binding protein Ran. We report here the 1.8 A crystal structure of a Ran*RCC1 complex in the absence of nucleotide, an intermediate in the multistep GEF reaction. In contrast to previous structures, the phosphate binding region of the nucleotide binding site is perturbed only marginally, possibly due to the presence of a polyvalent anion in the P loop. Biochemical experiments show that a sulfate ion stabilizes the Ran*RCC1 complex and inhibits dissociation by guanine nucleotides. Based on the available structural and biochemical evidence, we present a unified scenario for the GEF mechanism where interaction of the P loop lysine with an acidic residue is a crucial element for the overall reaction. Structural basis for guanine nucleotide exchange on Ran by the regulator of chromosome condensation (RCC1).,Renault L, Kuhlmann J, Henkel A, Wittinghofer A Cell. 2001 Apr 20;105(2):245-55.
