The aminoacylation of transfer ribonucleic acid. Recognition of methionine by Escherichia coli methionyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase.

The mechanism of the recognition of methionine by Escherichia coli methionyl-tRNA synthetase was examined by a kinetic study of the recognition of methionine analogues in the ATP-PPi exchange reaction and the tRNA-aminoacylation reaction. The results show that the recognition mechanism consists of three parts: (1) the recognition of the size, shape and chemical nature of the amino acid side cha...

Characterization of two species of methionine transfer ribonucleic acid from bakers' yeast.

The biochemical properties of two species of methionine transfer ribonucleic acid from bakers’ yeast, separated by diethylaminoethyl Sephadex column chromatography, have been studied. Each species of the two methionine tRNAs, designated methionine tRNA I and methionine tRNA II, respectively, has been purified by benzoylated DEAEcellulose column chromatography. Methionine tRNA I can be esterifie...

Inhibition of growth of Escherichia coli and of homoserine O-transsuccinylase by alpha-methylmethionine.

The methionine analogue, alpha-methylmethionine, inhibits bacterial growth, but its action is overcome by methionine, homocysteine, and cystathionine. The effect of the analogue on growth is attributed to its ability to mimic methionine as a feed-back inhibitor of the first enzyme specific to methionine biosynthesis. This conclusion is based on the findings that (i) alpha-methylmethionine inhib...

Multiple forms of lysyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase in Escherichia coli.

Lysyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase (EC 6.1.1.6) was identified as four polypeptide spots after two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of whole-cell lysates of Escherichia coli. Identification was made by migration with partially purified enzyme preparations, by peptide map patterns, by mutant analysis, and by correlation of spot intensities with changes in enzyme levels unde...

Proofreading and the evolution of a methyl donor function. Cyclization of methionine to S-methyl homocysteine thiolactone by Escherichia coli methionyl-tRNA synthetase.

A cyclic sulfonium compound, S-methyl homocysteine thiolactone (SMHT), is formed from methionine during in vitro tRNA aminoacylation catalyzed by Escherichia coli methionyl-tRNA synthetase. The mechanism of SMHT formation involves enzymatic deacylation of Met-tRNA (k = 0.06 s-1) and, to a lesser extent, Met-AMP (k = 0.02 s-1). Cyclization of methionine, reminiscent of cyclization of homocystein...
