| Abstract | Signal recognition particle (SRP) is a ribonucleoprotein composed of six polypeptides and a single RNA molecule. SRP RNA can be divided into four structural domains, the last of which is the most highly conserved and, in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, is the primary location to which deleterious mutations map. The ability of mammalian SRP54 protein (SRP54p) to bind Escherichia coli 4.5S RNA, a homolog of SRP RNA which contains only domain IV, suggested that SRP54p might interact directly with this region. To determine whether domain IV is critical for SRP54p binding in fission yeast cells, we used a native immunoprecipitation-RNA sequencing assay to test 13 mutant SRP RNAs for the ability to associate with the protein in vivo. The G156A mutation, which alters the 5' residue of the noncanonical first base pair of the domain IV terminal helix and confers a mild conditional growth defect, reduces assembly of the RNA with SRP54p. Mutating either of the two evolutionarily invariant residues in the bulged region 5' to G156 is more deleterious to growth and virtually abolishes SRP54p binding. We conclude that the conservation of nucleotides 154 to 156 is likely to be a consequence of their role as a sequence-specific recognition element for the SRP54 protein. We also tested a series of mutants with nucleotide substitutions in the conserved tetranucleotide loop and adjoining stem of domain IV. Although tetraloop mutations are deleterious to growth, they have little effect on SRP54p binding. Mutations which disrupt the base pair flanking the tetraloop result in conditional growth defects and significantly reduce association with SRP54p. Disruption of the other two base pairs in the short stem adjacent to the tetranucleotide loop has similar but less dramatic effects on SRP54p binding. These data provide the first evidence that both sequence-specific contacts and the structural integrity of domain IV of SRP RNA are important for assembly with SRP54p. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
