Lack of correlation between affinity of the tRNA for the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase and aminoacylation capacity as studied with modified tRNAPhe.

M Renaud, R Ehrlich, J Bonnet, P Remy.   

Abstract

The interactions of several modified yeast tRNAPhe [tRNAPhe lacking 7-methylguanine; a fragment comprising about 3/4 of the whole molecule: tRNAPhe (18--76); tRNAPhe (18--76) lacking 7-methylguanine] with yeast phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase were studied. Upon excision of the 5'-quarter of the tRNAPhe molecule, the residual fragment still tightly binds to the synthetase, but can no longer by aminoacylated. Surprisingly, upon removal of the 7-methylguanine base at position 46 in this fragment, althought the affinity drops by a factor 10, a significant aminoacylation is restored. These results are discussed in terms of molecular flexibility and a model is proposed for tRNA-enzyme interaction, involving multisite recognition.
