RNA-binding domain of signal recognition particle subunit 68 Signal recognition particles (SRPs) are ribonucleoprotein complexes that target particular nascent pre-secretory proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum. SRP68 is one of the two largest proteins found in SRPs (the other being SRP72), and it forms a heterodimer with SRP72. Heterodimer formation is essential for SRP function. This model characterizes the N-terminal RNA-binding domain SRP68-RBD, a tetratricopeptide-like module. Interactions between SRP68-RBD and SRP RNA (7SL RNA) are thought to facilitate a conformation of SRP RNA that is required for interactions with ribosomal RNA. |
