“Structures of a mobile intron retroelement poised to attack its structured DNA target”
II型内含子是核酶,催化它们的自我剪切,并作为入侵DNA的逆转录元件发挥作用。作为逆转录转座子,II型内含子形成核糖核蛋白(RNP)复合体,在基因组中漫游,通过整合反向的前剪接。来自美国耶鲁大学的Anna Marie Pyle课题组发现逆转录转位是通过结构精细的核酶、其蛋白质迁移因子和结构化DNA底物形成的三元复合体来实现的。研究者解析了一个包含有完整的IIC组内含子成熟酶逆转录元件的正准备整合到DNA茎环基序中的冷冻电镜结构,通过将在靶向DNA之前和之后的RNP分别进行可视化,研究者发现它为攻击做好了准备,并且与它的目标DNA完美匹配。本研究揭示了一个典型的逆转录元件的设计原则,并更证实了II类内含子是遗传多样性的古老元件的假设。

“Molecular recognition of morphine and fentanyl by the human μ-opioid receptor”
吗啡和芬太尼是最常用的阿片类药物之一,阿片类药物通过作用于G蛋白偶联受体家族中的阿片受体,尤其是μ型阿片受体(μ opioid receptor, μOR),主要激活下游抑制性Gi/o蛋白从而发挥镇痛等药理活性。
来自中国科学院上海药物研究所徐华强团队、谢欣团队和王明伟团队合作解析了与吗啡和芬太尼结合的人类μ型阿片受体(μOR)-G蛋白复合物的结构,并揭示了它们如何与受体结合的关键差异。研究人员还报告了μOR与TRV130、PZM21和SR17018结合的结构,并揭示了这些激动剂与配体结合袋的TM3侧而不是TM6/7侧的优先相互作用。相反,吗啡和芬太尼与TM3和TM6/7区域形成双重相互作用。TM6/7界面的突变废除了吗啡和芬太尼促进的阻遏蛋白对μOR的招募。旨在减少TM6/7相互作用的配体显示出优先的G蛋白信号传导。这些研究结果为芬太尼对μOR的识别和信号传导提供了关键的见解,这可能有助于合理设计下一代镇痛药。
