Solution structure of the C-terminal RNA-binding domain of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein D0 (AUF1)
Structural highlights
FunctionHNRPD_HUMAN Binds with high affinity to RNA molecules that contain AU-rich elements (AREs) found within the 3'-UTR of many proto-oncogenes and cytokine mRNAs. Also binds to double- and single-stranded DNA sequences in a specific manner and functions a transcription factor. Each of the RNA-binding domains specifically can bind solely to a single-stranded non-monotonous 5'-UUAG-3' sequence and also weaker to the single-stranded 5'-TTAGGG-3' telomeric DNA repeat. Binds RNA oligonucleotides with 5'-UUAGGG-3' repeats more tightly than the telomeric single-stranded DNA 5'-TTAGGG-3' repeats. Binding of RRM1 to DNA inhibits the formation of DNA quadruplex structure which may play a role in telomere elongation. May be involved in translationally coupled mRNA turnover. Implicated with other RNA-binding proteins in the cytoplasmic deadenylation/translational and decay interplay of the FOS mRNA mediated by the major coding-region determinant of instability (mCRD) domain.[1] [2] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedHeterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) D0 has two ribonucleoprotein (RNP) -type RNA-binding domains (RBDs), each of which can specifically bind to the UUAG-sequence. hnRNP D0 also binds specifically to single-stranded d(TTAGGG)(n), the human telomeric DNA repeat. We have already reported the structure and interactions with RNA of the N-terminal RBD (RBD1). Here, the structure of the C-terminal RBD (RBD2) determined by NMR is presented. It folds into a compact alpha beta structure comprising an antiparallel beta-sheet packed against two alpha-helices, which is characteristic of RNP-type RBDs. In addition to the four beta-strands commonly found in RNP-type RBDs, an extra beta-strand, termed beta 4(-), was found just before the fourth beta-strand, yielding a five-stranded beta-sheet. Candidate residues of RBD2 involved in the interactions with RNA were identified by chemical shift perturbation analysis. Perturbation was detected on the beta-sheet side, not on the opposite alpha-helix side, as observed for RBD1. It is notable that the beta 4(-) to beta 4 region of RBD2 is involved in the interactions in contrast to the case of RBD1. The chemical shift perturbation analysis also showed that RBD2 interacts with DNA in essentially the same way as with RNA. Changes in the backbone dynamics upon complex formation with DNA were examined by means of model free analysis of relaxation data. In free RBD2, the beta 4(-) to beta 4 region exhibits slow conformational exchange on the milli- to microsecond time scale. The exchange is quenched upon complex formation. The flexibility of free RBD2 may be utilized in the recognition process by allowing different conformational states to be accessed and facilitating induced fit. Additionally, faster flexibility on the nano- to picosecond time scale was observed for loop 3 located between beta 2 and beta 3 in free RBD2, which is retained by the complex as well.
