Article Title: | Evidence that electrostatic interactions dictate the ligand-induced arrest of RNA global flexibility |
Abstract: | The global dynamics of the TAR RNA from HIV-1 bound to two distinctly charged molecules have been characterized by NMR studies of residual dipolar couplings (see picture). While neomycin B (NeoB: +5) arrests global motions in TAR, the small organic molecule acetylpromazine (AcP: +1) does not. Results indicate that electrostatic interactions are critical for arresting global motions in RNA. (Chemical Equation Presented) © 2005 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA. |
