PHENYLALANYL-TRNA SYNTHETASE FROM THERMUS THERMOPHILUS COMPLEXED WITH TRNA AND A PHENYLALANYL-ADENYLATE ANALOG

OverviewOverview

The crystal structure of the ternary complex of (alphabeta)(2), heterotetrameric phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase (PheRS) from Thermus, thermophilus with cognate tRNA(Phe) and a nonhydrolyzable, phenylalanyl-adenylate analogue (PheOH-AMP) has been determined at 3.1 A, resolution. It reveals conformational changes in tRNA(Phe) induced by the, PheOH-AMP binding. The single-stranded 3' end exhibits a hairpin, conformation in contrast to the partial unwinding observed previously in, the binary PheRS.tRNA(Phe) complex. The CCA end orientation is stabilized, by extensive base-specific interactions of A76 and C75 with the protein, and by intra-RNA interactions of A73 with adjacent nucleotides. The, 4-amino group of the "bulged out" C75 is trapped by two negatively charged, residues of the beta ... [(full description)]
