A crystal structure of a collaborative RNA regulatory complex reveals mechanisms to refine target specificity

A crystal structure of a collaborative RNA regulatory complex reveals mechanisms to refine target specificity

In the Caenorhabditis elegans germline, fem-3 Binding Factor (FBF) partners with LST-1 to maintain stem cells. A crystal structure of an FBF-2/LST-1/RNA complex revealed that FBF-2 recognizes a short RNA motif different from the characteristic 9-nt FBF binding element, and compact motif recognition...
