摘要

Argonaute and Piwi proteins are key players in the RNA silencing pathway, with the former Interacting with micro-RNAs (miRNAs) and siRNAs, whereas the latter targets piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) that are 2' -O-methylated (2-OCH_3) at their 3' ends. Germline-specific piRNAs and Piwi proteins play a critical role in genome defense against transposable elements, thereby protecting the genome against transposon-induced defects in gametogen-esis and fertility. Humans contain four Piwi family proteins designated Hiwi1, Hiwi2, Hiwi3, and Hili. We report on the structures of Hili-PAZ (Piwi/Argonaute/Zwille) domain in the free state and Hiwi1 PAZ domain bound to self-complementary 14-mer RNAs (12-bp + 2-nt overhang) containing 2'-OCH_3 and 2'-OH at their 3' ends. These structures explain the molecular basis underlying accommodation of the 2'-OCH_3 group within a preformed Hiwii PAZ domain binding pocket, whose hydrophobic characteristics account for the preferential binding of 2'-OCH_3 over 2' -OH 3' ends. These results contrast with the more restricted binding pocket for the human Ago1 PAZ domain, which exhibits a reverse order, with preferential binding of 2' -OH over 2'-OCH_3 3' ends.
