Uniform Binding of Aminoacylated Transfer RNAs to the Ribosomal A and P Sites

Abstract: The association and dissociation rate constants of eight different E. coli aminoacyl-tRNAs (aa-tRNAs) for E. coli ribosomes programmed with mRNAs of defined sequences were determined. Identical association and dissociation rate constants were observed for all eight aa-tRNAs in both the ribosomal A and P sites despite substantial differences in tRNA sequence, the type of esterified amino acid, and posttranscriptional modifications. These results indicate that the overall binding of all aa-tRNAs to the ribosome … Show more

“…Tight-coupled 70S ribosomes from E. coli MRE600 cells were prepared as described (44) and purified pellets were resuspended in buffer RB (50 mM HEPES [pH 7.0], 30 mM KCl, 70 mM NH 4 Cl, 10 mM MgCl 2 , and 1 mM DTT). Ribosomes were flash frozen and stored at −80°C and activated as previously described (45). mRNA derivatives of the T4 gp32 mRNA fragment 5′-GGCAAGGAGGUAAAAAUGXXXGCACGU-3′, where XXX indicates the A site codon, were purchased from Dharmacon.…”

“…Tightly coupled 70S ribosomes from exponential E. coli MRE600 were purified, stored in small aliquots in 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl 2 , 70 mM NH 4 Cl, 1 mM DTT buffer at −80°C, and heat activated before reaction, as previously described (Fahlman et al 2004). E. coli EF-Tu was purified from a His6-TEV expression clone (Chapman et al 2012).…”

“…Unmodified E. coli tRNA Ala GGC and its mutants were prepared by in vitro transcription by T7 RNA polymerase from templates generated by primer extension of overlapping DNA oligonucleotides (IDT) and purified via 10% denaturing PAGE. Native tRNA Ala was isolated from unfractionated E. coli tRNA using an oligonucleotide hybridization protocol (Fahlman et al 2004). E. coli tRNA fMet was purchased from SigmaAldrich.…”
