Article Title: Z-Form Stabilization By The Zα Domain Of Adar1p150 Has Subtle Effects On A-To-I Editing

doi: 10.1101/2025.06.02.657529

Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) The domain structure of the short (ADAR1p110) and long (ADAR1p150) isoforms of ADAR1 are shown. ADAR1p110 contains a deaminase domain which is responsible for ADAR1’s catalytic deamination activity, three double-stranded RNA binding domains (dsRBDs) which interact with the A-form structure of dsRNA, a Nuclear Localization Sequence (NLS) and a Zβ domain of unknown function. ADAR1p150 contains the same domain structure but has a ∼300 a.a. N-terminal extension which contains a Nuclear Export Sequence (NES) as well as a Zα domain. ( B ) ADAR1 deaminases adenosine to inosine in dsRNA, which replaces the amino group on the adenosine with a keto group and disrupts A-form helical structure at AU base pairs. ( C ) Cartoon model depicting editing of a dsRNA by ADAR1 and the different domains. ( D ) The Zα domain is able to stabilize the left-handed Z-conformation of dsDNA and dsRNA through key residues which stabilize the unique Z-form geometry.

Article Title: Z-Form Stabilization By The Zα Domain Of Adar1p150 Has Subtle Effects On A-To-I Editing

doi: 10.1101/2025.06.02.657529

Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Domain structures of ADAR1p150 and ZBP1 are shown. ( B ) A cartoon depiction of the two potential models showing the effect of the Zα domain on ADAR1 function. In model 1, the Zα domain augments A-to-I editing broadly in a sequence-independent manner. In model 2, the Zα domain of ADAR1 competes with ZBP1 for binding to Z-form substrates in an editing independent manner, thereby inhibiting cell death pathways.
