Interactions of the N-terminal domain of ribosomal protein L11 with thiostrepton and rRNA.
Ribosomal protein L11 has two domains: the C-terminal domain (L11-C76) binds rRNA, whereas the N-terminal domain (L11-NTD) may variously interact with elongation factor G, the antibiotic thiostrepton, and rRNA. To begin to quantitate these interactions, L11 from Bacillus stearothermophilus has been overexpressed and its properties compared with those of L11-C76 alone in a fluorescence assay for...
متن کاملOn the role of rRNA tertiary structure in recognition of ribosomal protein L11 and thiostrepton.
Ribosomal protein L11 and an antibiotic, thiostrepton, bind to the same highly conserved region of large subunit ribosomal RNA and stabilize a set of NH4(+)-dependent tertiary interactions within the domain. In vitro selection from partially randomized pools of RNA sequences has been used to ask what aspects of RNA structure are recognized by the ligands. L11-selected RNAs showed little sequenc...
متن کاملThe RNA-binding domain of ribosomal protein L11 recognizes an rRNA tertiary structure stabilized by both thiostrepton and magnesium ion.
Antibiotics that inhibit ribosomal function may do so by one of several mechanisms, including the induction of incorrect RNA folding or prevention of protein and/or RNA conformational transitions. Thiostrepton, which binds to the 'GTPase center' of the large subunit, has been postulated to prevent conformational changes in either the L11 protein or rRNA to which it binds. Scintillation proximit...
متن کاملThe RNA binding domain of ribosomal protein L11: three-dimensional structure of the RNA-bound form of the protein and its interaction with 23 S rRNA.
The three-dimensional solution structure has been determined by NMR spectroscopy of the 75 residue C-terminal domain of ribosomal protein L11 (L11-C76) in its RNA-bound state. L11-C76 recognizes and binds tightly to a highly conserved 58 nucleotide domain of 23 S ribosomal RNA, whose secondary structure consists of three helical stems and a central junction loop. The NMR data reveal that the co...
متن کاملThe structure of free L11 and functional dynamics of L11 in free, L11-rRNA(58 nt) binary and L11-rRNA(58 nt)-thiostrepton ternary complexes.
The L11 binding site is one of the most important functional sites in the ribosome. The N-terminal domain of L11 has been implicated as a "reversible switch" in facilitating the coordinated movements associated with EF-G-driven GTP hydrolysis. The reversible switch mechanism has been hypothesized to require conformational flexibility involving re-orientation and re-positioning of the two L11 do...
