RNA recognition via the SAM domain of Smaug.

Molecular cell - 1 Jun 2003

Green Justin B, Gardner Cary D, Wharton Robin P, Aggarwal Aneel K

Abstract excerpt

The Nanos protein gradient in Drosophila, required for proper abdominal segmentation, is generated in part via translational repression of its mRNA by Smaug. We report here the crystal structure of the Smaug RNA binding domain, which shows no sequence homology to any previously characterized RNA...
