RNA-editing enzyme, molecular model
RNA-editing enzyme. Computer model of a left-handed, RNA double helix (Z-RNA) bound by the Z alpha domain of the human RNA-editing enzyme ADAR1 (double-stranded RNA adenosine deaminase). ADAR1 de-stabilises double stranded RNA (ribonucleic acid) by converting adenosine to inosine in the genetic sequence. ADAR1 is needed for the breakdown of adenosine from food and for the turnover of nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) in tissues

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated model of an RNA-editing enzyme, highlighting the intricate structure and complexity of molecular biology. The image features a left-handed, double-stranded RNA helix known as Z-RNA, bound by the Z alpha domain of the human RNA-editing enzyme ADAR1. This remarkable enzyme plays a crucial role in destabilizing double-stranded RNA by converting adenosine to inosine within the genetic sequence. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of biochemistry and structural biology, with its detailed depiction of chemical compounds and protein molecules. It serves as a visual representation of how ADAR1 is essential for breaking down adenosine obtained from food and facilitating turnover processes involving nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) within tissues. The space-filled molecular model provides insights into genetics, proteomics, and microbiology while showcasing the fascinating world hidden within our cells. Through deamination processes carried out by ADAR1, this enzyme actively contributes to maintaining cellular homeostasis. Science Photo Library has once again delivered an exceptional piece that combines scientific accuracy with artistic flair. This print not only appeals to researchers in various fields but also sparks curiosity among those interested in understanding life at its most fundamental level.
