Extended Data Fig. 2. The ZnF transiently interacts with the Xrn2 core.

Extended Data Fig. 2

Overlay of methyl TROSY NMR spectra of the Xrn2 enzyme with (black, WT) and without (purple, Delta ZnF) the ZnF. Removal of the ZnF does not perturb the structure of the Xrn2 enzyme, as can be concluded from the limited number of residues that experience CSPs. The observed CSPs upon deletion of the ZnF can be explained by the proximity of these residues to the (deleted) ZnF (for example I235) and by a transient interactions between the ZnF and a region of the enzyme that is located around the active site (I89, I59, I166, I314 and I850). In summary, these data thus show that the ZnF is loosely associated with Xrn2 and transiently interacts with the region of the enzyme that also contains the active site.
