Structure of the yeast tRNA m7G methylation complex.

Loss of N7-methylguanosine (m7G) modification is involved in the recently discovered rapid tRNA degradation pathway. In yeast, this modification is catalyzed by the heterodimeric complex composed of a catalytic subunit Trm8 and a noncatalytic subunit Trm82. We have solved the crystal structure of Trm8 alone and in complex with Trm82. Trm8 undergoes subtle conformational changes upon Trm82 binding which explains the requirement of Trm82 for activity. Cocrystallization with the S-adenosyl-methionine methyl donor defines the putative catalytic site and a guanine binding pocket. Small-angle X-ray scattering in solution of the Trm8-Trm82 heterodimer in complex with tRNA(Phe) has enabled us to propose a low-resolution structure of the ternary complex which defines the tRNA binding mode of Trm8-Trm82 and the structural elements contributing to specificity.


Getting a grip on complexes.

We are witnessing tremendous advances in our understanding of the organization of life. Complete genomes are being deciphered with ever increasing speed and accuracy, thereby setting the stage for addressing the entire gene product repertoire of cells, towards understanding whole biological systems. Advances in bioinformatics and mass spectrometric techniques have revealed the multitude of interactions present in the proteome. Multiprotein complexes are emerging as a paramount cornerstone of biological activity, as many proteins appear to participate, stably or transiently, in large multisubunit assemblies. Analysis of the architecture of these assemblies and their manifold interactions is imperative for understanding their function at the molecular level. Structural genomics efforts have fostered the development of many technologies towards achieving the throughput required for studying system-wide single proteins and small interaction motifs at high resolution. The present shift in focus towards large multiprotein complexes, in particular in eukaryotes, now calls for a likewise concerted effort to develop and provide new technologies that are urgently required to produce in quality and quantity the plethora of multiprotein assemblies that form the complexome, and to routinely study their structure and function at the molecular level. Current efforts towards this objective are summarized and reviewed in this contribution.
