Results. Like several homologous YjgF/YER057c/UK114 protein family members, the human translational inhibitor protein, hp14. 5, adopts a chorismate mutase-like3, 10 subunit fold. Each monomer consists of one globular domain formed by a 6-stranded-sheet and two-helices arranged in roughly parallel orientation on one side of the sheet [Fig. 1 (a)]. In the-sheet, the order of strands from one edge to the other is 1-2-3-6-4-5, where 4 and 5 are in parallel and all other strands are antiparallel. Three hp14. 5 monomers associate into a trimer with threefold noncrystallographic symmetry [Fig. 1 (b)]. Three such trimers formed by 9 polypeptide chains constitute the asymmetric unit of the crystal. Pairwise superpositions of the 3 trimers yield root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) values of 0.399 A, 0.607 A, and 0.556 A, indicating closely related trimer organization. The shape of the trimer resembles a triangular barrel. Three pairs of-helices are positioned on its outer surface, and 3 4 antiparallel strands form the inner surface of the barrel. The barrel is sealed off at one end by Tyr110 from each of the 3 subunits, and at the other end by 3 other tyrosines, Tyr32. The sealing of the barrel leads to the formation of a large cavity filled with water molecules. The biological role of this cavity, if any, is not clear. On the outer surface of the
