2005 journal article

Conserved spacing between the box C/D and C '/D ' RNPs of the archaeal box C/D sRNP complex is required for efficient 2 '-O-methylation of target RNAs

RNA, 11(3), 285–293.

By: E. Tran n, . Zhang  n, L. Lackey n & E. Maxwell n

author keywords: archaeal sRNA; box C/D RNA; box C/D RNP; snoRNA; nucleotide modification
MeSH headings : Archaeal Proteins / metabolism; Base Sequence; DNA Primers; Methylation; Nucleic Acid Conformation; RNA, Archaeal / chemistry; RNA, Archaeal / metabolism; Ribonucleoproteins / metabolism
TL;DR: The importance of spatially positioning the box C/D and C'/D' RNPs within the sRNP complex for nucleotide modification is investigated for preservation of critical inter-RNP interactions required for efficient box C /D sR NP-guided nucleotide methylation. (via Semantic Scholar)

2005 journal article

The crystal structure of the Methanocaldococcus jannaschii multifunctional L7Ae RNA-binding protein reveals an induced-fit interaction with the box C/D RNAs

BIOCHEMISTRY, 44(28), 9657–9672.

By: J. Suryadi  n, E. Tran n, E. Maxwell n & B. Brown n

MeSH headings : Amino Acid Motifs; Amino Acid Sequence; Archaeal Proteins / chemistry; Archaeal Proteins / metabolism; Base Sequence; Crystallography, X-Ray; Methanococcus; Models, Molecular; Molecular Sequence Data; Protein Binding; Protein Conformation; Protein Folding; Protein Structure, Secondary; RNA, Archaeal / chemistry; RNA, Archaeal / metabolism; RNA-Binding Proteins / chemistry; RNA-Binding Proteins / metabolism; Ribonucleoproteins, Small Nuclear / chemistry; Ribonucleoproteins, Small Nuclear / metabolism; Ribosomal Proteins / chemistry; Ribosomal Proteins / metabolism; Structural Homology, Protein; Thermodynamics
TL;DR: Comparison of the L7Ae structure to those of a number of related proteins with diverse functions has revealed significant structural homology which suggests that this protein fold is an ancient RNA-binding motif, suggesting that RNA binding occurs through an induced-fit interaction.

2004 journal article

Evolutionary origins of the RNA-guided nucleotide-modification complexes: from the primitive translation apparatus?

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 29(7), 343–350.

By: E. Tran n, J. Brown n & E. Maxwell n

MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Conserved Sequence; DNA Methylation; Evolution, Molecular; Molecular Sequence Data; Nucleic Acid Conformation; Protein Biosynthesis; Protein Conformation; RNA / genetics; RNA / physiology; Ribonucleoproteins / chemistry; Ribonucleoproteins / genetics; Ribonucleotides / metabolism; Ribosomes / chemistry; Ribosomes / genetics
TL;DR: The trans -acting, RNA-guided nucleotide-modification complexes of the modern RNP world seem to have evolved from cis -acting RNA or RNP elements contained in the primitive translation apparatus during the transition from the ancient RNA world to the modernRNP world. (via Semantic Scholar)

2004 journal article

Sequential 2 '-O-methylation of archaeal pre-tRNA(Trp) nucleotides is guided by the intron-encoded but trans-acting box c/D ribonucleoprotein of pre-tRNA

JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY, 279(46), 47661–47671.

By: K. Sanjay *, S. Singh, P. Gurha *, E. Tran n, E. Maxwell n & R. Gupta *

MeSH headings : Archaeal Proteins / genetics; Archaeal Proteins / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation, Archaeal; Haloferax volcanii / genetics; Haloferax volcanii / metabolism; Introns; Methylation; Mutagenesis, Site-Directed; Nucleic Acid Conformation; RNA Precursors / chemistry; RNA Precursors / metabolism; RNA, Archaeal / chemistry; RNA, Archaeal / metabolism; RNA, Transfer, Trp / chemistry; RNA, Transfer, Trp / metabolism; Ribonucleoproteins, Small Nuclear / chemistry; Ribonucleoproteins, Small Nuclear / genetics; Ribonucleoproteins, Small Nuclear / metabolism
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that pre-tRNA methylation is guided in trans by the intron-encoded box C/D RNPs positioned in either another pre-TRNATrp or in the excised intron, which could explain the observed accumulation of the excising H. volcanii pre- tR NATrp intron in vivo. (via Semantic Scholar)

2003 journal article

Efficient RNA 2 '-O-methylation requires juxtaposed and symmetrically assembled archaeal box C/D and C '/D ' RNPs

EMBO JOURNAL, 22(15), 3930–3940.

By: E. Tran n, . Zhang & E. Maxwell

author keywords: Archaea; box C; D RNP; ribonucleotide methylation; snoRNA; sRNA
MeSH headings : Archaea / metabolism; Archaeal Proteins / chemistry; Archaeal Proteins / metabolism; Base Sequence; Methylation; Molecular Sequence Data; Nucleic Acid Conformation; Protein Binding; RNA, Archaeal / chemistry; RNA, Archaeal / metabolism; Ribonucleoproteins / metabolism
TL;DR: In vitro assembly of an archaeal box C/D sRNP using recombinant core proteins L7, Nop56/58 and fibrillarin has yielded an RNA:protein enzyme that guides methylation from both the terminal box C-D core and internal C′/D′ RNP complexes. (via Semantic Scholar)
