The UBX domain: a widespread ubiquitin-like moduleA Buchberger
MRC Centre for Protein Engineering, Department of Chemistry, University of Cambridge, Lensfield Road, Cambridge CB2 1EW, UK
J Mol Biol 307:17-24. 2001..A role of the UBX domain in ubiquitin-related processes is suggested...
The solution structure of the S1 RNA binding domain: a member of an ancient nucleic acid-binding foldM Bycroft
Department of Chemistry, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom
Cell 88:235-42. 1997..Enhanced sequence searches reveal hitherto unidentified S1 domains in RNase E, RNase II, NusA, EMB-5, and other proteins...
The structure of a LysM domain from E. coli membrane-bound lytic murein transglycosylase D (MltD)A Bateman
The Sanger Centre, Welcome Trust Genome Campus, Cambridge, CB10 1SA, UK
J Mol Biol 299:1113-9. 2000..The structure shows no similarity to other bacterial cell surface domains. A potential binding site in a shallow groove on surface of the protein has been identified...
NMR solution structure of a dsRNA binding domain from Drosophila staufen protein reveals homology to the N-terminal domain of ribosomal protein S5M Bycroft
Cambridge Centre for Protein Engineering, Department of Chemistry, University of Cambridge, UK
EMBO J 14:3563-71. 1995..Two residues that are essential for RNA binding, F32 and K50, are also conserved in the S5 protein family, suggesting that the two domains interact with RNA in a similar way...
Crystal structure of a calcium-phospholipid binding domain from cytosolic phospholipase A2O Perisic
Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Medical Research Council Centre, Cambridge, United Kingdom
J Biol Chem 273:1596-604. 1998..Although hydrophobic interactions predominate for cPLA2, for other C2 domains such as in "conventional" protein kinase C and synaptotagmins, electrostatic forces prevail...
Assignment of the backbone 1H,15N,13C NMR resonances and secondary structure of a double-stranded RNA binding domain from the Drosophila protein staufenM Bycroft
Cambridge Centre for Protein Engineering, Department of Chemistry, University of Cambridge, UK
FEBS Lett 362:333-6. 1995..The domain has an alpha beta beta beta alpha arrangement of secondary structure, with the beta strands forming an antiparallel beta sheet. The secondary structure differs from that found in the RNP RNA binding domain...
