The kink-turn motif
A common RNA structural motif that consists of helix–internal loop–helix motif that introduces a very tight kink into the helical axis.

The kink-turn motif is a common RNA structural motif that consists of helix–internal loop–helix motif that introduces a very tight kink into the helical axis, as illustrated in the figure below and 3D structure window on the right. Originally identified in the course of analyzing the large ribosomal subunit[1], this RNA structural motif was also identified in other RNAs. Particular instances have been called the GA motif [2].


The kink-turn motif includes the A-minor motif. Many kink-turns bind proteins; however, that trait is not universal. They can mediate RNA tertiary structure interactions as well.

An excellent introduction can be found here as part of a structural database for k-turn motifs in RNA by the Lilley group[3].

Kink-turns fall into two conformational classes, called N3 and N1. The classes differ in the pattern of hydrogen bonding in the core, and that pattern is determined by the basepair adjacent to the G•A pairs[4].

  • The Large Ribosomal Subunit contains 9 identified kink-turns[1][3]: and Kt-7 ; and Kt-15 ; ; and Kt-42 ; and Kt-46 ); and Kt-58 ; and Kt-4/5 ; and Kt-94/99 with of 3cc2; as observed in 4v5e (While present based on sequence comparison, Kt-78 is in a portion of the large subunit not visible in the crystal structure of 3cc2.)
  • observed in the solved structure of the Haloarcula large ribosomal subunit shows they are on the surface of the subunit: , , , , , , , and . (A ninth kink-turn, Kt-78, though present in Haloarcula marismortui rRNA is in a portion not resolved in the actual Haloarcula marismortui structure, yet is also on the surface.)
  • See all of the 23S rRNA kink-turns and others on this page in greater detail following the appropriate links on this page at a structural database for k-turn motifs in RNA by the Lilley group[3].
  • The human spliceosomal and small nucleolar RNA-binding 15.5kD protein bound to the kink-turn of a U4 spliceosomal RNA fragment (1e7k)[5]. The fact both the box C/D small nucleolar RNAs and the spliceosomal U4 RNA share this motif, and in fact bind the same protein, was observed[6][5] even before the kink-turn was shown to be a widespread RNA motif.
  • The from Sulfolobus solfataricus has two kink-turns that are bound by L7Ae (3pla)[7]. .
  • A. fulgidus small ribonucleoprotein particle box C/D RNA has a kink-turn that is bound by L7Ae (1rlg)[8].
  • Pyrococcus furiosus small ribonucleoprotein particle box H/ACA RNA (2hvy[9],3hax,3hay[10]) has a kink turn that is bound directly by L7ae in a complex of several proteins.
  • In the Pyrococcus furiosus small ribonucleoprotein particle structure a box C/D RNA has two kink-turns bound by L7Ae (3nvm, 3nvk, 3nvi, and 3nmu)[11].
  • L7Ae protein as a subunit of archaeal RNase P binds to two kink-turns in the Pyrococcus furiosus RNase P RNA[12], [13]
  • Azoarcus group I intron:
  • The Azoarcus group I intron (1u6b, 1zzn, 3bo2, 3bo3, 3bo4, and 3iin)[14][15][16][17] has a 'reverse' kink-turn. Overlay of the Azoarcus group I intron reverse kink-turn with a typical one (Kt-7) clearly illustrates the difference. PUT A SCENE HERE OF ALIGNMENT OF THIS WITH KT-7 with each Kt colored differently
  • highlighted within the solved structure of theAzoarcus group I intron.
  • S. cerevisiae L30e bound to its pre-mRNA (1t0k)[18] has a kink-turn with a protein bound.
  • S-adenosylmethionine riboswitch regulatory mRNA element from Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis (2gis)[19] has a kink-turn.
  • The lysine riboswitch regulatory mRNA element from Thermotoga maritima (3dox) has a kink-turn
  • 1nkw – The Large Ribosomal Subunit From Deinococcus radiodurans[20]
  • The small ribosomal subunit (4v5e) has two kink-turns.
