概括

Dicers (Dcrs) 呈现出多样化的结构,通常缺乏正规域,但仍保留了用于小RNA处理的必不可少的RNA结合功能. 这突显了真核RNAi机械中的进化可塑性和结构保护.

科学领域:

分子生物学分子生物学
进化生物学进化生物学
菌类学菌类学是指菌类学.

背景情况:

迪克 (Dcrs) 对于小RNA (sRNA) 生物发生至关重要,但它们在真菌中的结构和进化仍未得到充分研究.
大多数真菌Dcrs偏离了动物和植物中发现的正规域架构,这就提出了关于它们的RNA结合和处理机制的问题.

研究的目的:

为了研究跨真菌类的Dcr域架构的多样性.
了解真菌如何保留sRNA处理功能,尽管Dcr结构的变化.
用真菌作为模型来探索真核生物中Dcr的进化轨迹.

主要方法:

在9个类别中对1592个真菌蛋白质进行了广泛的调查.
进行了遗传学分析,以确定Dcr分布和进化关系.
利用分子模拟来分析蛋白质结构和RNA结合表面.

主要成果:

在真菌中确定了多种多样的Dcr域架构,其中许多缺乏正规的Piwi,Argonaute和Zwille (PAZ),Helicase和/或双链RNA结合 (dsRBD) 域.
遗传学分析显示,不同的Dcr类分布在各类真菌中.
证明,尽管有架构上的分歧,但真菌Dcrs保持保存的结构折叠 (例如,PAZ类折叠) 和必要的RNA结合表面.

结论:

Dicers 显示了显著的进化可塑性,通过结构性保护保留了sRNA处理功能.
该研究强调真菌是研究真核生物RNA干扰机制模块化演变的有价值模型.
不同的Dcr结构强调了真核生物基因沉默通路的适应性.

Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins

Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins

Protein domains are small structurally independent units that are part of a single amino acid chain. Although these domains are often structurally independent, they may rely on synergistic effects to perform their functions as part of a larger protein. Protein domains may be conserved within the same organism, as well as across different organisms.
A limited set of protein domains often duplicate and recombine during evolution. These domains can be organized in different combinations to...

Protein Complexes with Interchangeable Parts

Protein Complexes with Interchangeable Parts

Groups of proteins may form a complex where each protein in this complex has a different role in the overall execution of the complex’s function. Often some of the proteins in the complex can be replaced by a closely related variant to give a complex that contains many of the same components yet is functionally distinct.
The SCF ubiquitin ligase is a protein complex of five individual proteins. This complex attaches ubiquitin to other target proteins to mark them for degradation. In order...

Structural Protein Function

Structural proteins are a category of proteins responsible for functions ranging from cell shape and movement to providing support to major structures such as bones, cartilage, hair, and muscles. This group includes proteins such as collagen, actin, myosin, and keratin.
Collagen, the most abundant protein in mammals, is found throughout the body. In connective tissue, such as skin, ligaments, and tendons, it provides tensile strength and elasticity. In bones and teeth, it mineralizes to...
