Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structure of YjeQ from Thermotoga maritima contains a circularly permuted GTPase domain

TL;DR: The overall structural features of TmYjeQ make it a good candidate for an RNA-binding protein, which is consistent with the biochemical data of the YjeQ subfamily in binding to the ribosome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structure of a phosphatase with a unique substrate binding domain from Thermotoga maritima

TL;DR: The superposition of active site residues with other HAD family members indicates that TM0651 is very likely a phosphatase that acts through the formation of a phosphoaspartate intermediate, which is supported by both NMR titration data and a biochemical assay.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structure of NusA from Thermotoga Maritima and functional implication of the N-Terminal Domain

TL;DR: Structural comparison between TmNusA and Mycobacterium tuberculosis NusA reveals a possible hinge motion between NTD and RBD, and a functional implication of the NTD in its interaction with RNA polymerase is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal Structure of the “PhoU-Like” Phosphate Uptake Regulator from Aquifex aeolicus

TL;DR: It is proposed that gene regulation by PhoU may occur by association of PHOU_AQUAE with the ATPase domain of the histidine kinase PhoR, promoting release of its substrate PhoB.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of OsmC from Escherichia coli: a salt-shock-induced protein.

TL;DR: A detailed analysis of structures and sequence comparisons in the OsmC sequence family revealed that each subfamily has unique motifs, suggesting that the OSMC sequenceFamily has a peroxiredoxin function and has a unique structure compared with other peroxIREDoxin families.
