2c77
EF-TU COMPLEXED WITH A GTP ANALOG AND THE ANTIBIOTIC GE2270 A
|
OverviewOverview
Pulvomycin inhibits protein synthesis by preventing the formation of the, ternary complex between elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) x GTP and aa-tRNA. In, this work, the crystal structure of Thermus thermophilus EF-Tu x, pulvomycin in complex with the GTP analogue guanylyl imino diphosphate, (GDPNP) at 1.4 A resolution reveals an antibiotic binding site extending, from the domain 1-3 interface to domain 2, overlapping the domain 1-2-3, junction. Pulvomycin binding interferes with the binding of the, 3'-aminoacyl group, the acceptor stem, and 5' end of tRNA. Only part of, pulvomycin overlaps the binding site of GE2270 A, a domain 2-bound, antibiotic of a structure unrelated to pulvomycin, which also hinders, aa-tRNA binding. The structure of the T. thermophilus EF-Tu x GDPNP x, GE2270 A complex ... [(full description)]
