S1 domain, a structural variant of one of the “oldest” OB-folds (oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide-binding fold), is widespread in various proteins in three domains of life: Bacteria, Eukaryotes, and Archaea. In this study, it was shown that S1 domains of bacterial, eukaryotic, and archaeal proteins have a low percentage of identity, which indicates the uniqueness of the scaffold and is associated with protein functions. Assessment of the predisposition of tertiary flexibility of S1 domains using computational and statistical tools showed similar structural features and revealed functional flexible regions that are potentially involved in the interaction of natural binding partners. In addition, we analyzed the relative number and distribution of S1 domains in all domains of life and established specific features based on sequences and structures associated with molecular functions. The results correlate with the presence of repeats of the S1 domain in proteins containing the S1 domain in the range from one (bacterial and archaeal) to 15 (eukaryotic) and, apparently, are associated with the need for individual proteins to increase the affinity and specificity of protein binding to ligands. |
