[Binding of the yeast phenylalanine tRNA with Escherichia coli ribosomes. Effect of the removal of a modified base from the 3'-end of the anticodon on codon-anticodon interaction]. 1984

V I Katunin, and S V Kirillov

Phe-tRNAPhe+Y and N-acetyl-Phe-tRNAPhe+Y from yeast interact with prokaryotic 30S subunits and 70S ribosomes with slightly lower affinity than respective tRNA's of E. coli (decrease of standard free energy change of interaction less than 10%). The removal of Y-base from Phe-tRNAPhe+Y results in two orders of magnitude decrease of association constant of Phe-tRNAPh-Ye with P site of the 30S X poly(U) complex and one ordef of magnitude or more of that with A site. The same modification decreases the association constants of Phe-tRNAPhe-Y and N-acetyl-Phe-tRNAPhe-Y 60 and 15 times respectively with P site of the 70S X poly(U) complex. In the absence of poly(U) the affinity of N-acetyl-Phe-tRNAPhe-Y to P-site of 70S ribosome was 20-fold lower than that of native N-acetyl-Phe-tRNAPhe+Y. The sign of interaction enthalpy of N-acetyl-Phe-tRNAPhe+/-Y and Phe-tRNAPhe-Y changes below 6-7 degrees C exposing the hydrophobic part of P-site interactions. Similar removal of Y-base does not change both the enthalpy of interaction with P-site and magnesium concentration dependence.

D003062	Codon	A set of three nucleotides in a protein coding sequence that specifies individual amino acids or a termination signal (CODON, TERMINATOR). Most codons are universal, but some organisms do not produce the transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER) complementary to all codons. These codons are referred to as unassigned codons (CODONS, NONSENSE).

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

D012331	RNA, Fungal	Ribonucleic acid in fungi having regulatory and catalytic roles as well as involvement in protein synthesis.	Fungal RNA
D012333	RNA, Messenger	RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
