Fecha de publicación: | 2013 | Editor: | International Union of Crystallography | Citación: | Acta Crystallographica Section D: Biological Crystallography 69(6): 1054-1061 (2013) | Resumen: | The vault particle, with a molecular weight of about 10 14;MDa, is the largest ribonucleoprotein that has been described. The X-ray structure of intact rat vault has been solved at a resolution of 3.5 14;Å [Tanaka et al. (2009), Science, 323, 384-388], showing an overall barrel-shaped architecture organized into two identical moieties, each consisting of 39 copies of the major vault protein (MVP). The model deposited in the PDB includes 39 MVP copies (half a vault) in the crystal asymmetric unit. A 2.1 14;Å resolution structure of the seven N-terminal repeats (R1-7) of MVP has also been determined [Querol-Audí et al. (2009), EMBO J. 28, 3450-3457], revealing important discrepancies with respect to the MVP models for repeats R1 and R2. Here, the re-refinement of the vault structure by incorporating the high-resolution information available for the R1-7 domains, using the deformable elastic network (DEN) approach and maintaining strict 39-fold noncrystallographic symmetry is reported. The new refinement indicates that at the resolution presently available the MVP shell can be described well as only one independent subunit organized with perfect D39 molecular symmetry. This refinement reveals that significant rearrangements occur in the N-terminus of MVP during the closing of the two vault halves and that the 39-fold symmetry breaks in the cap region. These results reflect the highly dynamic nature of the vault structure and represent a necessary step towards a better understanding of the biology and regulation of this particle. © 2013 International Union of Crystallography. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0907444913004472 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/88208 | DOI: | 10.1107/S0907444913004472 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.1107/S0907444913004472 issn: 0907-4449 e-issn: 1399-0047 |
