In the title compound, [Fe(C12H12N2)(H2O)4]SO4, the central FeIIion is coordinated by two N atoms from the 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine ligand and four water O atoms in a distorted octahedral geometry. The Fe—O coordination bond lengths vary from 2.080 (3) to 2.110 (3) Å, while the two Fe—N coordination bonds have practically identical lengths [2.175 (3) and 2.177 (3) Å]. The chelating N—Fe—N angle of 75.6 (1)° shows the largest deviation from an ideal octahedral geometry; the other coordination angles deviate from ideal values by 0.1 (1) to 9.1 (1)°. O—H...O hydrogen bonding between the four aqua ligands of the cationic complex and four O-atom acceptors of the anion leads to the formation of layers parallel to theabplane. Neighbouring layers further interact by means of C—H...O and π–π interactions involving the laterally positioned bipyridine rings. The perpendicular distance between π–π interacting rings is 3.365 (2) Å, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.702 (3) Å.

ABSTRACT The C and D box-containing (box C/D) small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) function in the nucleolytic processing and 2′-O-methylation of precursor rRNA. In vertebrates, most box C/D snoRNAs are processed from debranched pre-mRNA introns by exonucleolytic activities. Elements directing accurate snoRNA excision are located within the snoRNA itself; they comprise the conserved C and D boxes and an adjoining 5′,3′-terminal stem. Although the terminal stem has been demonstrated to be essential for snoRNA accumulation, many snoRNAs lack a terminal helix. To identify thecis-acting elements supporting the accumulation of intron-encoded box C/D snoRNAs devoid of a terminal stem, we have investigated the in vivo processing of the human U46 snoRNA and an artificial snoRNA from the human β-globin pre-mRNA. We demonstrate that internal and/or external stem structures located within the snoRNA or in the intronic flanking sequences support the accumulation of mammalian box C/D snoRNAs lacking a canonical terminal stem. In the intronic precursor RNA, transiently formed external and/or stable internal base-pairing interactions fold the C and D boxes together and therefore facilitate the binding of snoRNP proteins. Since the external intronic stems are degraded during snoRNA processing, we propose that the C and D boxes alone can provide metabolic stability for the mature snoRNA.

ABSTRACTRNA structure and dynamics are critical to biological function. However, strategies for determining RNA structure in vivo are limited, with established chemical probing and newer duplex detection methods each having notable deficiencies. Here we convert the common reagent dimethyl sulfate (DMS) into a useful probe of all four RNA nucleotides. Building on this advance, we introduce PAIR-MaP, which uses single-molecule correlated chemical probing to directly detect base pairing interactions in cells. PAIR-MaP has superior resolution and accuracy compared to alternative experiments, can resolve alternative pairing interactions of structurally dynamic RNAs, and enables highly accurate structure modeling, including of RNAs containing multiple pseudoknots and extensively bound by proteins. Application of PAIR-MaP to human RNase MRP and two bacterial mRNA 5'-UTRs reveals new functionally important and complex structures undetectable by conventional analyses. PAIR-MaP is a powerful, experimentally concise, and broadly applicable strategy for directly visualizing RNA base pairs and dynamics in cells.

Building on this advance, we introduce PAIR-MaP, which uses single-molecule correlated chemical probing to directly detect base-pairing interactions in cells. PAIR-MaP has superior resolution compared to alternative experiments, can resolve multiple sets of pairing interactions for structurally dynamic RNAs, and enables highly accurate structure modeling, including of RNAs containing multiple pseudoknots and extensively bound by proteins. Application of PAIR-MaP to human RNase MRP and 2 bacterial messenger RNA 5′ untranslated regions reveals functionally important and complex structures undetected by prior analyses. PAIR-MaP is a powerful, experimentally concise, and broadly applicable strategy for directly visualizing RNA base pairs and dynamics in cells.
