项目摘要

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The central theme of this proposal is structural and mechanistic studies of nucleic acids, proteins, and their interactions. The two broad topics that will serve as foci for our research are: 1) the structure and mechanism of topoisomerases, and 2) the structure, architecture, and mechanism of RNase P. The aim of our work is to discover and explore paradigms that help to illuminate the structure and mechanism of biological molecules common to all three domains of life (bacteria, archaea, and eukaryota). Topoisomerases are ubiquitous proteins found across all three domains of life. They are involved in several cellular processes and the importance of their cellular role is underscored by the fact that they are the target of several cancer chemotherapeutic agents and antibiotics. The study of the structure, mechanism, and function of topoisomerases not only furthers our understanding at many different levels of proteins that interact with DNA and alter its topological properties, but also provides important information to aid in the design of new therapeutic agents. To accomplish our goals, our comprehensive studies of topoisomerases will focus on two large and complementary projects: Project 1. Structural and biochemical studies of type IA, type IC and type II topoisomerases, and Project 2. Single molecule studies of type IA and type II topoisomerases. These two major projects will help answer crucial questions that are needed to advance the field to the next level. RNase P is a ribonucleoprotein complex found in almost all organisms, from bacteria to humans, and responsible for processing many different RNA molecules in the cell. It is composed of one essential RNA subunit and one or more proteins, but in all cases the RNA component is responsible for catalysis. RNase P was one of the first catalytic RNA molecules discovered and its study has been pivotal to our understanding of the role of RNA molecules in catalysis. Our studies of the structure and function of RNase P are providing important and relevant information on a key ribozyme involved in RNA processing in the cell, while also furthering our understanding of the structure and function of large RNA molecules and ribonucleoprotein complexes. To ensure that RNase P continues to be a paradigm for understanding RNA structure and function, large ribonucleoprotein complexes, and also the evolution from the ancient RNA world, a third project, Project 3. Structural and biophysical studies of RNase P, will be centered on structural and functional studies on RNase P expanding it to include RNase Ps from all three domains of life.
 描述(由申请人提供):本提案的中心主题是核酸、蛋白质及其相互作用的结构和机制研究。两个广泛的主题,将作为我们的研究重点是:1)拓扑异构酶的结构和机制,和2)的结构,架构,和RNase P的机制。我们的工作的目的是发现和探索范式,有助于阐明共同的生物分子的结构和机制的所有三个领域的生活(细菌,古细菌,真核生物)。 拓扑异构酶是在生命的所有三个领域中普遍存在的蛋白质。它们参与几种细胞过程,并且它们是几种癌症化疗剂和抗生素的靶标这一事实强调了它们的细胞作用的重要性。对拓扑异构酶的结构、机制和功能的研究不仅加深了我们对与DNA相互作用并改变其拓扑结构的蛋白质的许多不同水平的理解, 性质,而且还提供了重要的信息,以帮助设计新的治疗剂。为了实现我们的目标,我们对拓扑异构酶的全面研究将集中在两个大型互补项目上:项目1。IA型、IC型和II型拓扑异构酶的结构和生物化学研究,以及项目2。IA型和II型拓扑异构酶的单分子研究。这两个主要项目将有助于回答将该领域推向下一个水平所需的关键问题。 RNase P是一种核糖核蛋白复合物,几乎存在于从细菌到人类的所有生物体中,负责处理细胞中许多不同的RNA分子。它由一个必需的RNA亚基和一个或多个蛋白质组成,但在所有情况下,RNA组分负责催化。RNase P是最早发现的催化RNA分子之一,它的研究对于我们理解RNA分子在催化中的作用至关重要。我们对RNase P的结构和功能的研究为细胞中参与RNA加工的关键核酶提供了重要和相关的信息,同时也加深了我们对大RNA分子和核糖核蛋白复合物的结构和功能的理解。为了确保RNase P继续成为理解RNA结构和功能、大型核糖核蛋白复合物以及从古代RNA世界进化的范例,第三个项目,项目3。RNase P的结构和生物物理学研究将集中在RNase P的结构和功能研究上,将其扩展到包括来自所有三个生命领域的RNase P。
