Comparative structural insights and functional analysis for the distinct unbound states of Human AGO proteins
2024-03-25
Abstract excerpt
The four human Argonaute (AGO) proteins, essential in RNA interference and gene regulation, exhibit high sequence and structural similarity, yet differ functionally. Our molecular dynamics simulations revealed that while AGO proteins adopt similar open-close states, each one displays distinct local conformations, leading to unique interdomain distances and intramolecular interactions. We found that GW182/ZSWIM8 in...
