  ABSTRACT  
 
RNA hairpin loops containing a GNRA consensus sequence are the most frequently occurring hairpins in a variety of prokaryotic and eukaryotic RNAs. These tetraloops play important functional roles in RNA folding, in RNA-RNA tertiary interactions and as protein binding sites. Homo and heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy have been used to determine the structures of the most abundant members of the GNRA tetraloop family: the GAGA, GCAA and GAAA loops closed by a C-G base pair. Analysis of the structures of these three hairpin loops reveals a network of heterogeneous hydrogen bonds. The loops contain a G-A base pair, a G base-phosphate hydrogen bond and several 2' OH-base hydrogen bonds. These intramolecular interactions and the extensive base stacking in the loop help explain the high thermodynamic stability and give insight into the diverse biological roles of the GNRA RNA hairpins.

Figure 6.
Figure 6. Schematic drawing of the hydrogen bonding network proposed for GNRA tetraloops. The following hydrogen bonds are indicated: G5 H2 to A8 N7, G5 N3 to A8 H6, G5 O2' to A8 H6, G5 2'OH to the six and seven positions of nucleotide 7, G5 H2 to A8 OP and G5 H1 to A8 OP.
Figure 7.
Figure 7. Comparison of the GCAA and GAGA loops, illustrates small differences in hydrogen bond- ing patterns. The hydrogen bonding between -G5 2'OH and the third base of the loops are shown. No hydrogen atoms are displayed ex- cept the G5 2'OH and the protons of the third base, which are shown in dark circles. (a) In the GCAA loop the 2' hydroxyl group of G5 can interact with the N7 of A7 and the amino group of A7. (b) In the GAGA loop the 2' hydroxyl group of G5 can interact with the N7 of G7 or with the O6 of G7.

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.
