Protein Domain
Type: Domain
Description: The catalytic subunit of telomerase is structurally similar to retroviral reverse transcriptases, viral RNA polymerases and, to a lesser extent, the bacteriophage B-family DNA polymerases. Like its structural homologues, the core catalytic subunit of telomerase, TERT, contains the fingers, palm and thumb domains required for nucleic acid and nucleotide associations as well as catalysis. The four major TERT domains: the RNA binding domain (TRBD); the fingers domain, implicated in nucleotide binding and processivity; the palm domain, which contains the active site of the enzyme; and the thumb domain, implicated in DNA binding and processivity are organized into a ring configuration similar to that observed for the substrate-free enzyme. This is the thumb domain found in Tribolium castaneum telomerase catalytic subunit, TERT. Contacts between TERT and the DNA substrate are mostly mediated via backbone interactions with the thumb loop and helix. The thumb helix sits in the minor groove of the RNA-DNA heteroduplex, making extensive contacts with the phosphodiester backbone and the ribose groups of the RNA-DNA hybrid [, ].

Description: Coronaviruses (CoVs) are enveloped positive-strand RNA viruses that infect many species, including humans, other mammals, and birds. After infection, the host may develop respiratory, bowel, liver, and neurological diseases. CoVs are divided into four genera: Alphacoronavirus, Betacoronavirus, Gammacoronavirus, and Deltacoronavirus. SARS, SARS-CoV-2, BatCoV RaTG13 and Bat-SARS-like coronavirus (BATSL-CoVZXC21 and BAT-SL-CoVZC45) belong to the Sarbecovirus subgenus of Betacoronavirus.The CoV replicase gene encodes two overlapping polyproteins, termed pp1a and pp1ab, which mediate viral replication and transcription. The polypeptides pp1a and pp1ab are processed by the action of a main protease (NSP5) and of one or two papain-like proteases (PLpro) found in NSP3 into non-structural proteins (NSPs) to form the replication/transcription complex (RTC). Among them, the NSP12 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, that includes an RdRp catalytic domain conserved in all RNA viruses, possesses some minimal activity on its own, but the addition of the NSP7 and NSP8 cofactors greatly stimulates polymerase activity. The NSP12-NSP7-NSP8 subcomplex is thus defined as the minimal corecomponent for mediating coronavirus RNA synthesis [, , , , ].The NSP12 subunit contains an N-terminal NiRAN domain, an interface domain and a C-terminal polymerase domain, represented inthis entry, which resembles a right hand, comprising the fingers, palm and thumb subdomains. The active site is located on the palm subdomain and is formed by five conserved NSP12 elements known as motifs A-E [, , , ].

Description: RNA-directed RNA polymerase (RdRp) () is an essential protein encoded in the genomes of all RNA containing viruses with no DNA stage [, ]. It catalyses synthesis of the RNA strand complementary to a given RNA template, but the precise molecular mechanism remains unclear.The postulated RNA replication process is a two-step mechanism. First, the initiation step of RNA synthesis begins at or near the 3' end of the RNA template by means of a primer-independent (de novo) mechanism. The de novo initiation consists in the addition of a nucleotide tri-phosphate (NTP) to the 3'-OH of the first initiating NTP. During the following so-called elongation phase, this nucleotidyl transfer reaction is repeated with subsequent NTPs to generate the complementary RNA product []. All the RNA-directed RNA polymerases, and many DNA-directed polymerases, employ a fold whose organisation has been likened to the shape of a right hand with three subdomains termed fingers, palm and thumb []. Only the catalytic palm subdomain, composed of a four-stranded antiparallel β-sheet with two α-helices, is well conserved among all of these enzymes. In RdRp, the palm subdomain comprises three well conserved motifs (A, B and C). Motif A (D-x(4,5)-D) and motif C (GDD) are spatially juxtaposed; the Asp residues of these motifs are implied in the binding of Mg2+ and/or Mn2+. The Asn residue of motif B is involved in selection of ribonucleoside triphosphates over dNTPs and thus determines whether RNA is synthesised rather than DNA [].The domain organisation []and the 3D structure of the catalytic centre of a wide range of RdPp's, even those with a low overall sequence homology, are conserved. The catalytic centre is formed by several motifs containing a number of conserved amino acid residues.There are 4 superfamilies of viruses that cover all RNA containing viruses with no DNA stage:Viruses containing positive-strand RNA or double-strand RNA, except retroviruses and Birnaviridae: viral RNA-directed RNA polymerases including all positive-strand RNA viruses with no DNA stage, double-strand RNA viruses, and the Cystoviridae, Reoviridae, Hypoviridae, Partitiviridae, Totiviridae families.Mononegavirales (negative-strand RNA viruses with non-segmented genomes).Negative-strand RNA viruses with segmented genomes, i.e. Orthomyxoviruses (including influenza A, B, and C viruses, Thogotoviruses, and the infectious salmon anemia virus), Arenaviruses, Bunyaviruses, Hantaviruses, Nairoviruses, Phleboviruses, Tenuiviruses and Tospoviruses.Birnaviridae family of dsRNA viruses.The RNA-directed RNA polymerases in the first of the above superfamilies can be divided into the following three subgroups:All positive-strand RNA eukaryotic viruses with no DNA stage.All RNA-containing bacteriophages -there are two families of RNA-containing bacteriophages: Leviviridae (positive ssRNA phages) and Cystoviridae (dsRNA phages).Reoviridae family of dsRNA viruses.This entry represents the catalytic domain RNA-directed RNA polymerase.

Description: The sequences in this family are similar to the reoviral minor core protein lambda 3 (), which functions as a RNA-dependent RNA polymerase within the protein capsid. It is organised into 3 domains. The N- and C-terminal domains create a "cage"which encloses a conserved central catalytic domain within a hollow centre. This catalytic domain is arranged to form finger, palm and thumb subdomains. Unlike other RNA polymerases, such as HIV reverse transcriptase and T7 RNA polymerase, the lambda 3 protein binds template and substrate with only localised rearrangements, and catalytic activity can occur with little structural change. However, the structure of the catalytic complex is similar to that of other polymerase catalytic complexes with known structure [].

Description: RNA-directed RNA Polymerase corresponds to the nonstructural protein 12 (NSP12) produced by cleavage of OFR1b. NSP12 contains a polymerase domain that assumes a structure resembling a cupped 'right hand', similar to other polymerases, containing a fingers domain, a palm domain and a thumb domain. Coronavirus NSP12 also contains a nidovirus-unique N-terminal extension (nidovirus RdRp-associated nucleotidyltransferase (NiRAN)) that possesses a kinase-like fold allowing the binding of NSP12 to NSP7 and NSP8. NSP12 possesses some minimal activity on its own, but the addition of the NSP7 and NSP8 co-factors greatly stimulates polymerase activity [, , , ].This domain represents the N-terminal region of the coronavirus RNA-directed RNA Polymerase, which includes the NiRAN and interface domains [, ]. The function of the NiRAN domain is not clear and its target is yet unknown, but it has enzymatic activity that is essential for viral propagation. Structure from SARS-CoV-2 revealed that this domain binds ADP-Mg+2, which may constitute a new pocket for anti-viral treatment development [].

First, the initiation step of RNA synthesis begins at or near the 3' end of the RNA template by means of a primer-independent (de novo) mechanism. The de novo initiation consists in the addition of a nucleotide tri-phosphate (NTP) to the 3'-OH of the first initiating NTP. During the following so-called elongation phase, this nucleotidyl transfer reaction is repeated with subsequent NTPs to generate the complementary RNA product []. All the RNA-directed RNA polymerases, and many DNA-directed polymerases, employ a fold whose organisation has been likened to the shape of a right hand with three subdomains termed fingers, palm and thumb []. Only the catalytic palm subdomain, composed of a four-stranded antiparallel β-sheet with two α-helices, is well conserved among all of these enzymes. In RdRp, the palm subdomain comprises three well conserved motifs (A, B and C). Motif A (D-x(4,5)-D) and motif C (GDD) are spatially juxtaposed; the Asp residues of these motifs are implied in the binding of Mg2+ and/or Mn2+. The Asn residue of motif B is involved in selection of ribonucleoside triphosphates over dNTPs and thus determines whether RNA is synthesised rather than DNA [].The domain organisation []and the 3D structure of the catalytic centre of a wide range of RdPp's, even those with a low overall sequence homology, are conserved. The catalytic centre is formed by several motifs containing a number of conserved amino acid residues.There are 4 superfamilies of viruses that cover all RNA containing viruses with no DNA stage:Viruses containing positive-strand RNA or double-strand RNA, except retroviruses and Birnaviridae: viral RNA-directed RNA polymerases including all positive-strand RNA viruses with no DNA stage, double-strand RNA viruses, and the Cystoviridae, Reoviridae, Hypoviridae, Partitiviridae, Totiviridae families.Mononegavirales (negative-strand RNA viruses with non-segmented genomes).Negative-strand RNA viruses with segmented genomes, i.e. Orthomyxoviruses (including influenza A, B, and C viruses, Thogotoviruses, and the infectious salmon anemia virus), Arenaviruses, Bunyaviruses, Hantaviruses, Nairoviruses, Phleboviruses, Tenuiviruses and Tospoviruses.Birnaviridae family of dsRNA viruses.The RNA-directed RNA polymerases in the first of the above superfamilies can be divided into the following three subgroups:All positive-strand RNA eukaryotic viruses with no DNA stage.All RNA-containing bacteriophages -there are two families of RNA-containing bacteriophages: Leviviridae (positive ssRNA phages) and Cystoviridae (dsRNA phages).Reoviridae family of dsRNA viruses.This entry represents the C-terminal domain of RdRp from avibirnaviruses, which lack the highly conserved Gly-Asp-Asp (GDD) sequence, a component of the proposed catalytic site of this enzyme family that exists in the conserved motif VI of the palm domain () of other RdRps []. These enzymes have the five essential RNA polymerase motifs in a permuted order of C-A-B-D-E to form a conserved catalytic active site [, ]. This domain is mostly α-helical and runs across the canyon in the front of the palm, wrapping around the fingers subdomain [], which may function to prevent back-primed RNA synthesis during protein priming. This domain adopts an α-helical orthogonal bundle structure.

Description: Thg1 was originally characterised as synthesising the guanine nucleotide at the -1 position of the histidinyl tRNA (HtRNA). Thg1 has also been shown to have polymerase activity, which has been proposed to be the ancestral activity of this enzyme [, ].

This region has several well-conserved charged residues including a basic residue found towards the end of the first helix of this unit might contribute to the Thg1-specific active site []. This C-terminal module of Thg1 is predicted to form a helical bundle that functions equivalently to the fingers of the other nucleic acid polymerases, probably in interacting with the template HtRNA [].

The large structural protein (or L protein) carries four enzymatic activities: RNA-directed RNA polymerase (), mRNA (guanine-N(7)-)-methyltransferase (), mRNA guanylyltransferase (), and poly(A) synthetase. The viral mRNA guanylyl transferase displays a different biochemical reaction than the cellular enzyme. The template is composed of the viral RNA tightly encapsidated by the nucleoprotein (N). The protein can function either as transcriptase or as replicase. The transcriptase synthesises subsequently subgenomic RNAs, assuring their capping and polyadenylation by a stuttering mechanism. The transcriptase stutters on a specific sequence, resulting on a cotranscriptional editing of the phosphoprotein (P) mRNA. The replicase mode is dependent on intracellular N protein concentration. In this mode, the polymerase replicates the whole viral genome without recognizing the transcriptional signals. 5' GpppApGpG sequence is required for mRNA cap methylation by the enzyme.

The de novo initiation consists in the addition of a nucleotide tri-phosphate (NTP) to the 3'-OH of the first initiating NTP. During the following so-called elongation phase, this nucleotidyl transfer reaction is repeated with subsequent NTPs to generate the complementary RNA product []. All the RNA-directed RNA polymerases, and many DNA-directed polymerases, employ a fold whose organisation has been likened to the shape of a right hand with three subdomains termed fingers, palm and thumb []. Only the catalytic palm subdomain, composed of a four-stranded antiparallel β-sheet with two α-helices, is well conserved among all of these enzymes. In RdRp, the palm subdomain comprises three well conserved motifs (A, B and C). Motif A (D-x(4,5)-D) and motif C (GDD) are spatially juxtaposed; the Asp residues of these motifs are implied in the binding of Mg2+ and/or Mn2+. The Asn residue of motif B is involved in selection of ribonucleoside triphosphates over dNTPs and thus determines whether RNA is synthesised rather than DNA [].The domain organisation []and the 3D structure of the catalytic centre of a wide range of RdPp's, even those with a low overall sequence homology, are conserved. The catalytic centre is formed by several motifs containing a number of conserved amino acid residues.There are 4 superfamilies of viruses that cover all RNA containing viruses with no DNA stage:Viruses containing positive-strand RNA or double-strand RNA, except retroviruses and Birnaviridae: viral RNA-directed RNA polymerases including all positive-strand RNA viruses with no DNA stage, double-strand RNA viruses, and the Cystoviridae, Reoviridae, Hypoviridae, Partitiviridae, Totiviridae families.Mononegavirales (negative-strand RNA viruses with non-segmented genomes).Negative-strand RNA viruses with segmented genomes, i.e. Orthomyxoviruses (including influenza A, B, and C viruses, Thogotoviruses, and the infectious salmon anemia virus), Arenaviruses, Bunyaviruses, Hantaviruses, Nairoviruses, Phleboviruses, Tenuiviruses and Tospoviruses.Birnaviridae family of dsRNA viruses.The RNA-directed RNA polymerases in the first of the above superfamilies can be divided into the following three subgroups:All positive-strand RNA eukaryotic viruses with no DNA stage.All RNA-containing bacteriophages -there are two families of RNA-containing bacteriophages: Leviviridae (positive ssRNA phages) and Cystoviridae (dsRNA phages).Reoviridae family of dsRNA viruses.This entry represents RNA-directed RNA polymerase (also known as the large structural protein) from various Rhabdoviruses, such as Vesicular stomatitis Indiana virus []. The large structural protein (or L protein) carries four enzymatic activities: RNA-directed RNA polymerase (), mRNA (guanine-N(7)-)-methyltransferase (), mRNA guanylyltransferase (), and poly(A) synthetase. The viral mRNA guanylyl transferase displays a different biochemical reaction than the cellular enzyme. The template is composed of the viral RNA tightly encapsidated by the nucleoprotein (N). The protein can function either as transcriptase or as replicase. The transcriptase synthesises subsequently five subgenomic RNAs, assuring their capping and polyadenylation by a stuttering mechanism. The replicase mode is dependent on intracellular N protein concentration. In this mode, the polymerase replicates the whole viral genome without recognizing the transcriptional signals.

Description: This entry contains coronavirus (CoV) cysteine endopeptidases that belong to MEROPS peptidase family C16 (subfamilies C16A and C16B, clan CA). These peptidases are involved in viral polyprotein processing, releasing NSP1, NSP2 and NSP3 proteins []and they also function as deubiquitinating and deISG15ylating (interferon-induced gene 15) enzymes, disrupting host viral immune response to facilitate viral proliferation and replication. Therefore, this is an important target to develop antiviral treatments [].All coronaviruses encode between one and two accessory cysteine proteinases that recognise and process one or three sites in the amino-terminal half of the replicase polyprotein during assembly of the viral replication complex. MHV, HCoV and TGEV encode two accessory proteinases, called coronavirus papain-like proteinase 1 and 2 (PL1-PRO and PL2-PRO) []. IBV and SARS encodes only one called PL-PRO (PL2-PRO, conserved in all CoVs) [, , ]. The structures of both PL-PROs are similar and they also have restricted specificities. The PL1-PRO of TGEV cleaves the polyprotein between Nsp2-Nsp3 recognising the Lys-Met-Gly-Gly motif, and recognises Leu-Arg-Gly-Gly in ubiquitin (ub) which shows that it is able to accommodate residues as different as Lys and Leu. In contrast, PL-PRO from SARS-CoV recognises Leu-Xaa-Gly-Gly (Xaa could be any amino acid) and cleaves peptide bonds between Nsp1-Nsp2, Nsp2-Nsp3 and between Nsp3-Nsp4 [, , ]. In Ub and ISG15 proteins, it recognises Leu-Arg-Gly-Gly motifs. SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 are closely related but exhibit different host substrate preferences: SARS-CoV-2 PL-PRO preferentially cleaves the ubiquitin-like ISG15, whereas SARS-CoV PL-PRO predominantly targets ubiquitin chains [, ].The peptidase family C16 domain is about 260 amino acids in length and the solved structures determined that it consists of thumb, palm, and fingers subdomains. The thumb is comprised of six α-helices and a small β-hairpin; the fingers subdomain is made of six β-strands and two α-helices and includes a zinc binding site, in which the zinc ion is coordinated by four cysteine residues. Zinc binding is essential for structural integrity and protease activity, with a conformation that varies most between different PL-PRO structures. The palm subdomain is comprised of six β-strands and includes the catalytic residues Cys-His-Asp, located at the interface between the thumb and palm subdomains [].
