Description

Three GPN-loop GTPases, GPN1–GPN3, are central to the maturation and trafficking of eukaryotic RNA polymerase II. This GTPase family is widely represented in archaea but typically occurs as single paralogs. Structural analysis of the GTP- and GDP-bound states of the Sulfolobus acidocaldarius GPN enzyme (SaGPN) showed that this central GPN-loop GTPase adopts two distinct quaternary structures.
