الوصف: Summary RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) commonly feature multiple RNA-binding domains (RBDs), which provide these proteins with a modular architecture. Accumulating evidence supports that RBP architectural modularity and adaptability define the specificity of their interactions with RNA. However, how multiple RBDs recognize their cognate single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) sequences in concert remains poorly understood. Here, we use Upstream of N-Ras (Unr) as a model system to address this question. Although reported to contain five ssRNA-binding cold-shock domains (CSDs), we demonstrate that Unr includes an additional four CSDs that do not bind RNA (pseudo-RBDs) but are involved in mediating RNA tertiary structure specificity by reducing the conformational heterogeneity of Unr. Disrupting the interactions between canonical and non-canonical CSDs impacts RNA binding, Unr-mediated translation regulation, and the Unr-dependent RNA interactome. Taken together, our studies reveal a new paradigm in protein-RNA recognition, where interactions between RBDs and pseudo-RBDs select RNA tertiary structures, influence RNP assembly, and define target specificity.
Graphical Abstract
Highlights • Discovery of non-canonical cold-shock domains • Non-canonical cold-shock domains do not bind RNA independently • Interdomain contacts mediate RNA structure specificity and impact translation • Determination of an Unr-dependent ribonucleoprotein (RNP) interactome
Hollmann et al. show how non-RNA-binding domains within Drosophila Unr, an RNA-binding protein, contribute to its RNA target specificity. The selectivity is mediated by interdomain contacts to the RNA-binding cold-shock domains, which restrict the protein shape.
