The method of small-angle X-ray scattering was employed to analyse the equilibrium enzyme-substrate complexes in solution. A new approach of analysis of the experimental data was developed. This type of analysis provides the determination of dissociation constants and structural parameters of enzyme-substrate complexes. The radius of gyration (Rg) and dimensions of half-axis of the equivalent prolonged ellipsoid (a, b) of E. coliphenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase and its complexes with one or two tRNA(Phe) molecules have been determined. The values of these parameters speak in favour of structural rearrangements due to the interaction of the enzyme with tRNA(Phe). The thermodynamic characteristics of phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase complexes with tRNA(Phe) testify to the negative cooperativity in binding of two tRNA molecules with the enzyme.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
