SOLUTION NMR STRUCTURE OF RIBONUCLEASE HI FROM ESCHERICHIA COLI, 8 STRUCTURES
Structural highlights
Function[RNH_ECOLI] Endonuclease that specifically degrades the RNA of RNA-DNA hybrids. RNase H participates in DNA replication; it helps to specify the origin of genomic replication by suppressing initiation at origins other than the oriC locus; along with the 5'-3' exonuclease of pol1, it removes RNA primers from the Okazaki fragments of lagging strand synthesis; and it defines the origin of replication for ColE1-type plasmids by specific cleavage of an RNA preprimer.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00042] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedThe solution structure of ribonuclease HI (RNase HI) from Escherichia coli (E. coli), a protein of 155 residues, was determined. Three-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (NOESY) was used to obtain 1,424 distance constraints between individually assigned polypeptide chain hydrogen atoms. Supplemental geometric constraints of 90phi angles and 12chi1 angles, and the distance constraints of 66 hydrogen bonds were experimentally derived. Using the DADAS90 program that calculates structures in dihedral angle space, 15 structures satisfying almost all constraints were obtained. The average root mean square deviation (RMSD) from the mean structure was 0.75 A for backbone atoms. The RMSD for backbone atoms between the representative NMR structure with the smallest constraint violation and crystal structures was within 1.2 A. Although the NMR and crystal structures thus resemble one another, a significant discrepancy was observed in a region termed 'basic protrusion.' The discrepancy observed in NMR experiments is explained by fluctuation in this region.
