  ABSTRACT  
 
The structure of a Nova protein K homology (KH) domain recognizing single-stranded RNA has been determined at 2.4 A resolution. Mammalian Nova antigens (1 and 2) constitute an important family of regulators of RNA metabolism in neurons, first identified using sera from cancer patients with the autoimmune disorder paraneoplastic opsoclonus-myoclonus ataxia (POMA). The structure of the third KH domain (KH3) of Nova-2 bound to a stem loop RNA resembles a molecular vise, with 5'-Ura-Cyt-Ade-Cyt-3' pinioned between an invariant Gly-X-X-Gly motif and the variable loop. Tetranucleotide recognition is supported by an aliphatic alpha helix/beta sheet RNA-binding platform, which mimics 5'-Ura-Gua-3' by making Watson-Crick-like hydrogen bonds with 5'-Cyt-Ade-3'. Sequence conservation suggests that fragile X mental retardation results from perturbation of RNA binding by the FMR1 protein.

The portion of the stem loop crystallization RNA making extensive protein contacts has been included as a color-coded stick figure (Figure 2) with the aliphatic residues (gray) comprising the hydrophobic α/β RNA binding platform. (A) shows the entire complex. (B), (C), and (D) show the environments of Ade-11 Ura-12, and Cyt-13, respectively. (E) shows the environments of Ade-14 and Cyt-15. The side chain of Leu-28 is denoted with *. (F) corresponds to the views used in (D) and (E), with the overlying RNA removed, and shows the aliphatic platform with the jaws of the molecular vise.

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 code is shown on the right.
