Backbone resonance assignments of the 48 kDa dimeric putative 18S rRNA-methyltransferase Nep1 from Methanocaldococcus jannaschii

Biomol NMR Assign. 2009 Dec;3(2):251-4. doi: 10.1007/s12104-009-9187-z.

Abstract

Nep1 from Methanocaldococcus jannaschii is a 48 kDa dimeric protein belonging to the SPOUT-class of S-adenosylmethionine dependent RNA-methyltransferases and acting as a ribosome assembly factor. Mutations in the human homolog are the cause of Bowen-Conradi syndrome. We report here 1H, 15N and 13C chemical shift assignments for the backbone of the protein in its apo state.
