Abstract excerpt
The RNA recognition motif (RRM), one of the most common RNA binding domains, contains three highly conserved aromatic amino acids that participate in stacking interactions with RNA bases. We have investigated the contribution of these highly conserved aromatic amino acids to the affinity of the complex formed between the N-terminal RRM of the U1A protein and stem loop 2 of U1 snRNA. Previously, we found that...
