The identification of a domain in Escherichia coli elongation factor Tu that interacts with elongation factor Ts.
A method has been developed to search for the elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) domain(s) that interact with elongation factor Ts (EF-Ts). This method is based on the suppression of Escherichia coli EF-Tu-dominant negative mutation K136E, a mutation that exerts its effect by sequestering EF-Ts. We have identified nine single-amino acid- substituted suppression mutations in the region 146-199 of EF-T...
متن کاملInteraction of mitochondrial elongation factor Tu with aminoacyl-tRNA and elongation factor Ts.
Elongation factor (EF) Tu promotes the binding of aminoacyl-tRNA (aa-tRNA) to the acceptor site of the ribosome. This process requires the formation of a ternary complex (EF-Tu.GTP.aa-tRNA). EF-Tu is released from the ribosome as an EF-Tu.GDP complex. Exchange of GDP for GTP is carried out through the formation of a complex with EF-Ts (EF-Tu.Ts). Mammalian mitochondrial EF-Tu (EF-Tu(mt)) differ...
متن کاملDoc toxin is a kinase that inactivates elongation factor Tu.
The Doc toxin from bacteriophage P1 (of the phd-doc toxin-antitoxin system) has served as a model for the family of Doc toxins, many of which are harbored in the genomes of pathogens. We have shown previously that the mode of action of this toxin is distinct from the majority derived from toxin-antitoxin systems: it does not cleave RNA; in fact P1 Doc expression leads to mRNA stabilization. How...
متن کاملEngineering the elongation factor Tu for efficient selenoprotein synthesis
Selenocysteine (Sec) is naturally co-translationally incorporated into proteins by recoding the UGA opal codon with a specialized elongation factor (SelB in bacteria) and an RNA structural signal (SECIS element). We have recently developed a SECIS-free selenoprotein synthesis system that site-specifically--using the UAG amber codon--inserts Sec depending on the elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu). Her...
متن کاملTranslation elongation factor Tu cleaved by a phage-exclusion system.
Bacteriophage T4 multiples poorly in Escherichia coli strains carrying the defective prophage, e14; the e14 prophage contains the lit gene for late inhibitor of T4 in E. coli. The exclusion is caused by the interaction of the e14-encoded protein, Lit, with a short RNA or polypeptide sequence encoded by gol from within the major head protein gene of T4. The interaction between Lit and the gol pr...
