Characterization of a thermosensitive Escherichia coli aspartyl-tRNA synthetase mutant.
The Escherichia coli tls-1 strain carrying a mutated aspS gene (coding for aspartyl-tRNA synthetase), which causes a temperature-sensitive growth phenotype, was cloned by PCR, sequenced, and shown to contain a single mutation resulting in substitution by serine of the highly conserved proline 555, which is located in motif 3. When an aspS fragment spanning the codon for proline 555 was transfor...
متن کاملZinc-dependent cell growth conferred by mutant tRNA synthetase.
We present evidence that zinc bound near the C terminus of a long tRNA synthetase polypeptide, and at a location far in the sequence from the catalytic domain, is needed to sustain cell growth and is, therefore, essential for enzyme function. Several class I and class II tRNA synthetases contain bound zinc, including the 939-amino acid class I Escherichia coli isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, which h...
متن کاملContributions of discrete tRNA(Ser) domains to aminoacylation by E.coli seryl-tRNA synthetase: a kinetic analysis using model RNA substrates.
The aminoacylation kinetics of T7 transcripts representing defined regions of Escherichia coli serine tRNAs were determined using purified E.coli seryl-tRNA synthetase (SerRS) and the kinetic values were used to estimate the relative contribution of various tRNA(Ser) domains to recognition by SerRS. The analysis revealed that the extra stem/loop structure, characteristic of type II tRNAs such a...
متن کاملClone and functional analysis of Seryl-tRNA synthetase and Tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase from silkworm, Bombyx mori
Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are the key enzymes for protein synthesis. Glycine, alanine, serine and tyrosine are the major amino acids composing fibroin of silkworm. Among them, the genes of alanyl-tRNA synthetase (AlaRS) and glycyl-tRNA synthetase (GlyRS) have been cloned. In this study, the seryl-tRNA synthetase (SerRS) and tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS) genes from silkworm were cloned. Their...
متن کاملHuman hereditary glutathione synthetase deficiency: kinetic properties of mutant enzymes.
Patients with hereditary glutathione synthetase deficiency suffer from haemolytic anaemia, 5-oxoprolinuria, metabolic acidosis, recurrent bacterial infections and various degrees of central nervous system dysfunction. To investigate the molecular basis of the mutations associated with this disease, seven naturally occurring missense mutations [L188P (Leu188-->Pro), D219A, D219G, Y270C, Y270H, R...
