Abstract
Human lithostathine is a 144-residue protein, expressed in various organs and pathologies. Several biological functions have been proposed for this protein. Among others, inhibition of nucleation and growth of CaCO3 crystals in the pancreas and bacterial aggregation has retained attention, because lithostathine presents high sequence similarities with calcium-dependent (or C-type) lectins. To study its structure-function relationship and compare it with that of C-type lectins, we have built a model for lithostathine. This model is derived from the only two C-type lectins of known structures: rat mannose binding protein and human E-selectin. An original strategy, inspired by that proposed by Havel and Snow, was designed for model building. We have undertaken NMR studies on the natural protein. Although complete structure determination has not yet been achieved, the NMR studies did confirm the main characteristics of the model. From analysis of the proposed model, we concluded that lithostathine is not expected to present sugar- or calcium-binding properties. Therefore, the mechanisms of bacterial aggregation and inhibition of CaCO3 nucleation and growth have not yet been elucidated.

Abstract
The three-dimensional structure of bovine angiogenin has been determined using two- and three-dimensional proton NMR spectroscopy. The solution structure is very close to that recently determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. This structure appears well defined, even if five loops and one helix exhibit greater flexibility. Analysis of the active site geometry confirms the position of the Glu-118 residue which obstructs the pyrimidine binding site. There is no experimental evidence of an unobstructed conformation of angiogenin in solution. In addition, it appears that the Glu-118 and Ser-119 residues and the cell receptor binding loop may play an important role in the differences of C-terminal fragment organization and ribonucleolytic activity observed between angiogenins and ribonuclease A.

Abstract
A new application of a recently developed electronic radiation-damping (RD) control system is presented. It is possible to amplify radiation damping so as to make the water magnetization return back to its equilibrium direction in a time shorter than the characteristic RD time. Certain types of experiments involving radiation damping as a selective inversion pulse can be significantly improved by this new method. Moreover, amplification of RD is shown to improve water suppression and consequently the dynamics of 2D NOESY experiments on proteins.

Abstract
CYP1(HAP1) is a transcriptional activator involved in the aerobic metabolism of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The amino acid sequence of its DNA-binding domain suggests that it belongs to the "zinc cluster" class. This region is indeed characterized by a pattern known to form a bimetal thiolate cluster where two zinc ions are coordinated by six cysteine residues. Structures of two such domains, those from GAL4 and PPR1, have been solved as complexes with DNA. These domains consist of the zinc cluster connected to a dimerization helix by a linker peptide. They recognize, as a dimer, an inverted repeat of a CGG motif that is separated by a specific number of bases. Interestingly, the specificity of that interaction seems not to be due to the interaction between the cluster region and the DNA but rather to a fine tune between the structure of the linker peptide and the number of base-pairs separating the two CGGs. However, the CYP1 target sites fail to display such a consensus sequence. One of the two CGG sites is poorly conserved and some experiments suggest a direct rather than an inverted repeat. Using 1H, 15N and 113Cd NMR spectroscopy, we have undertaken the analysis of the structural properties of the CYP1(56-126) fragment that consists of the zinc-cluster region, the linker peptide and a part of the dimerization helix. We have demonstrated that the six cysteine residues of the peptide chelate two cadmium ions as in GAL4 and PPR1. Fifteen structures of the zinc-cluster region (residues 60 to 100) were calculated, the linker peptide and the dimerization helix being unstructured under the conditions of our study. This region possesses the same overall fold as in GAL4 and PPR1, and most of the side-chains involved in the interaction with DNA are structurally conserved. This suggests that the CYP1 zinc-cluster region recognizes a CGG triplet in the same way as GAL4 and PPR1. In this case, the particular properties of CYP1 seem to be due to the structure of the linker peptide and/or of the dimerization helix.

Abstract
Initiation of translation in prokaryotes requires the formation of a complex between the messenger RNA, the 30 S ribosomal subunit and the initiator tRNA(fMet). Initiation factor IF3 binds to the 30 S ribosomal subunit and proof-reads the initiation complex, thereby ensuring the accuracy of this step. IF3 also plays a pleiotropic role in the regulation of translation, as a result of differential influences exerted on the levels of the initiation of translation of genes or groups of genes. IF3 is composed of two independent domain or roughly identical sizes. We have expressed and purified the C-terminal domain of E. coli IF3 and shown that it retains both the 30 S particle binding and 70 S ribosome dissociating activities of the native protein. We have obtained 1H and 15N NMR resonance assignments and its 3D solution structure was calculated using 551 restraints. It is composed of a mixed beta-sheet backed by two alpha-helices. It shows a striking resemblance to the U1A small nuclear ribonucleoprotein structure, which binds to the U1 snRNA in the eukaryotic spliceosome. This suggests a convergent evolution process for these two proteins that are associated with ribonucleoproteic complexes.

Abstract
Initiation factor IF3 from Escherichia coli is composed of two domains connected by a hydrophilic peptide. In this study, the N-terminal domain (residues 7-83) has been overexpressed, 15N labelled and purified. NMR assignments for this domain have been obtained by two-dimensional and three-dimensional heteronuclear and homonuclear spectroscopy. Using distance geometry and simulated annealing, a three-dimensional solution structure was calculated using 506 NOE and 56 dihedral angle restraints. The resulting structure is composed of a five-stranded antiparallel beta sheet surrounded by two alpha helices. Since the heteronuclear 1H-15N correlation spectrum of the N-terminal domain of IF3 is an almost exact subset of that of the native protein, the assignments obtained and the structure calculated should be directly transposable to the full-length protein.

Abstract
Radiation damping is a phenomenon well known among NMR spectroscopists of proteins as a source of undesirable features, especially in high-field and high-Q probe NMR. In this paper, we present an electronic neutralization network which dramatically reduces radiation damping. It detects the radiation field profile and feeds back into the probe an rf field with identical amplitude and opposite phase. Experimental results of a practical implementation carried out on a 400 MHz Bruker spectrometer are shown.

Abstract
Various fragments of the N-terminal, DNA-binding domain of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcriptional activator CYP1(HAP1) have been cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The corresponding polypeptides have been analysed biochemically and we have undertaken a more extensive physical study of a fragment consisting of amino acids 49-126 [CYP1(49-126)]. We show that this CYP1(49-126) peptide requires zinc or cadmium in the growth medium in order to maintain a stable structure. A method to purify CYP1(49-126) is presented. We demonstrate that the purified CYP1(49-126) fragment contains two zinc ions/fragment or two cadmium ions/fragment, which are necessary for DNA binding. 113Cd one-dimensional NMR data suggest that CYP1(HAP1) has a tetrahedral coordination, and that it forms a zinc-cluster complex like GAL4.

Abstract
Angiogenins are 14-kDa proteins able to induce blood vessel growth in various preparations and are thus thought to be involved in the development of solid tumors. Angiogenins have significant similarities with extracellular ribonuclease and possess a characteristic nuclease activity against large RNA molecules. These proteins are also able to induce second-messenger pathways. We have undertaken the determination of the three-dimensional structure of bovine angiogenin by using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Since this protein was directly purified from cow milk, it was not possible to enrich angiogenin with 13C or 15N isotopes. However, extensive use of two-dimensional and three-dimensional proton NMR experiments enabled us to identify all but four spin systems and to assign all corresponding proton resonances. Identification of most backbone-backbone nuclear Overhauser enhancements led to the characterization of the secondary structure elements of the protein. Comparison with the structure of ribonuclease A and analysis of the location of conserved residues confirmed that the two molecules have very similar structures.
