Solution NMR backbone assignment of the N-terminal tandem Zalpha1-Zalpha2 domains of Z-DNA binding protein 1
The detection of nucleic acids that are present in atypical conformations is a crucial trigger of the innate immune response. Human Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) is a pattern recognition receptor that harbors two Z? domains that recognize Z-DNA and Z-RNA. ZBP1 detects this alternate nucleic acid conformation as foreign, and upon stabilization of these substrates, it triggers activation of an immune response. Here, we present the backbone chemical shift assignment of a construct encompassing the...
