PF22476Argonaute, N-terminal domain (Ago_N_3)Argonaute, N-terminal domainThis domain is found at the N-terminal end of Protein argonaute from Pyrococcus furiosus (Ago), a component of the RNAi effector complex (RISC).

Ago is organised into four domains: N (this entry), PAZ (Pfam:PF12212), middle and PIWI (Pfam:PF02171). This domain shows a small four-stranded beta-sheet, three alpha-helices and a beta-hairpin [1].

The function of this domain is the dsRNA guided hydrolysis of ssRNA. Determination of the crystal structure of Argonaute reveals that PIWI is an RNase H domain, and identifies Argonaute as Slicer, the enzyme that cleaves mRNA in the RNAi RISC complex [2]. In addition, Mg+2 dependence and production of 3'-OH and 5' phosphate products are shared characteristics of RNaseH and RISC. The PIWI domain core has a tertiary structure belonging to the RNase H family of enzymes. RNase H fold proteins all have a five-stranded mixed beta-sheet surrounded by helices. By analogy to RNase H enzymes which cleave single-stranded RNA guided by the DNA strand in an RNA/DNA hybrid, the PIWI domain can be inferred to cleave single-stranded RNA, for example mRNA, guided by double stranded siRNA.
