The structure of the mRNA export factor TAP reveals a cis arrangement of a non-canonical RNP domain and an LRR domain.

  ABSTRACT  
 
Human TAP is implicated in mRNA nuclear export and is used by simian type D retroviruses to export their unspliced genomic RNA to the cytoplasm of the host cell. We have determined the crystal structure of the minimal TAP fragment that binds the constitutive transport element (CTE) of retroviral RNAs. Unexpectedly, we find the fragment consists of a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) domain, which is not identifiable by its sequence, and a leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain. The non-canonical RNP domain functions as the general RNA-binding portion of the fragment. The LRR domain is required in cis to the RNP domain for CTE RNA binding. The structural and biochemical properties of the domains point to a remarkable similarity with the U2B"(RNP)-U2A'(LRR) spliceosomal heterodimer. Our in vitro and in vivo functional studies using structure-based mutants suggest that a phylogenetically conserved surface of the LRR domain of TAP may have different roles in the export of viral and cellular RNAs.

Figure 1.
Figure 1 Domain structure of human TAP. The N-terminal region of the molecule includes the minimal CTE RNA-binding fragment (residues 102–372) (Braun et al., 1999). The domain boundaries of the RNP and the LRR domains (shaded in gray) are as identified from this work. The domain mapping of the C-terminal region is as previously described (Bachi et al., 2000; Suyama et al., 2000).

Figure 6 Identification of putative macromolecular interaction surfaces. (A) Ribbon diagram of the RNP domain in green with the side chains of mutated residues in pink (see Figure 2C). Residues that are essential for CTE binding are boxed. (B) Surface representation of the RNP domain in a similar orientation to (A). The surface is colored according to electrostatic potential, with blue indicating positively charged areas and red indicating negatively charged areas. (C) Structure of the LRR domain viewed towards the convex -helical surface. Residues at this surface that have been mutated are shown in pink (see Figure 3E). The molecule has been rotated 180° with respect to the view in Figure 3A. (D) Electrostatic surface of the convex outer surface of the LRR domain viewed as in (A), and colored as in (B). Residues whose function is discussed in the text are labeled, and boxed when essential.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB codes are shown on the right.
