Fun30 (Function unknown now 30) is a chromatin remodeller belonging to the Snf2 family. It has previously been reported to be a regulator of several cellular activities, including DNA repair, gene silencing and maintenance of chromatin structure. Here, the crystal structure of the Fun30 ATPase-C domain (the C-lobe of the ATPase domain) is reported at 1.95 Å resolution. Although the structure displays overall similarities to those of other Snf2 family members, a new structural module was found to be specific to the Fun30 subfamily. Fun30 ATPase-C was shown be monomeric in solution and showed no detectable affinity for dsDNA.
Fun30(目前功能未知的30)是一种属于Snf2家族的染色质重塑因子。此前有报道称它是多种细胞活动的调节因子,包括DNA修复、基因沉默和染色质结构维持。在此,报道了Fun30 ATP酶-C结构域(ATP酶结构域的C叶)的晶体结构,分辨率为1.95 Å。尽管该结构与其他Snf2家族成员的结构总体相似,但发现了一个新的结构模块是Fun30亚家族特有的。Fun30 ATP酶-C在溶液中呈单体形式,对双链DNA没有可检测到的亲和力。
