Structure-function relationship of arginyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli: isolation and characterization of the argS mutation MA5002.

The Escherichia coli K12 argS MA5002 mutant appears to have a functionally altered arginyl-tRNA synthetase (ArgRS). The gene coding for this enzyme was isolated from E. coli genomic DNA using the PCR procedure and inserted into a pUC18 multicopy vector. Sequencing revealed that it differs from the wildtype ArgRS structural gene only by one mutation: a replacement of a C by an A residue which results in substitution of an arginine by a serine at position 134, located two residues downstream from the HVGH consensus sequence. As compared to the genomic enzyme level, this recombinant vector, containing the mutated gene, produces in E. coli JM103, about 100 times as much modified ArgRS. This enzyme was obtained nearly pure after only two chromatographic steps; it exhibits a 4-6 times as low activity and a 5 times as high Km value for ATP as the wildtype enzyme in the aminoacylation and ATP-PPi reactions; Km values for arginine and tRNAArg remained unaltered. The position of this mutation and its effect on enzymatic properties suggest the implication of arginine 134 in ATP binding as well as in the activation catalytic process.     

恶臭假单胞菌丙氨酸消旋酶基因的克隆、序列分析及表达

从恶臭假单胞菌(Pseudomonas putida)200的基因组出发,用PCR方法克隆到两个独立作用的丙氨酸消旋酶基因,称之为dadX和alr。DadX编码357个氨基酸长的多肽,计算分子量为38.82kDa,alr编码409个氨基酸长的多肽,计算分子量为44.182kDa。序列分析显示,DadX的氨基酸序列与Pseudomonas putidaKT2440,铜绿假单胞菌(Pseudomonas aeruginosa),鼠伤寒沙门氏菌(Salmonella typhimurium)和大肠杆菌(Escherichia coli)的DadX比较,相似性分别为96.64%、71.99%、44.88%和47.37%。Alr的氨基酸序列与Pseudomonas putidaKT2440比较,同源性为94.38%,而与铜绿假单胞菌(P.aeruginosa)、鼠伤寒沙门氏菌(S.typhimurium)和大肠杆菌(E.coli)的Alr比较,同源性均较低,分别为22.89%、25.72%和26.44%。在P.putida200的DadX和Alr氨基酸序列中部发现有对于酶活性至关重要的保守区域,如磷酸吡哆醛(PLP)结合位点。DadX和alr在大肠杆菌中得到表达,DadX丙氨酸消旋酶只对丙氨酸有消旋作用,而Alr丙氨酸消旋酶可以作用于丙氨酸和丝氨酸两种底物,且对丝氨酸特异性更高。Alr的表达不依赖于外源启动子,说明在其结构基因上游存在启动子结构。     

Expression and characterization of a recombinant yeast isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase

We describe the heterologous expression of a recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IRS) gene in Escherichia coli, as well as the purification and characterization of the recombinant gene product. High level expression of the yeast isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase gene was facilitated by site-specific mutagenesis. The putative ribosome-binding site of the yeast IRS gene was made to be the consensus of many highly expressed genes of E. coli. Mutagenesis simultaneously created a unique BclI restriction site such that the gene coding region could be conveniently subcloned as a "cassette." The variant gene was cloned into the expression vector pKK223-3 (Brosius, J., and Holy, A. (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 81, 6929-6933) thereby creating the plasmid pKR4 in which yeast IRS expression is under the control of the isopropyl-thio-beta-galactopyranoside (IPTG)-inducible tac promoter. Recombinant yeast IRS, on the order of 10 mg/liter of cell culture, was purified from pKR4-infected and IPTG-induced E. coli strain TG2. Yeast IRS was purified to homogeneity by a combination of anion-exchange and hydroxyapatite gel chromatography. Inhibition of yeast IRS activity by the antibiotic pseudomonic acid A was tested. The yeast IRS enzyme was found to be 10(4) times less sensitive to inhibition by pseudomonic acid A (Ki = 1.5 x 10(-5) M) than the E. coli enzyme. E. coli strain TG2 infected with pKR4, and induced with IPTG, had a plating efficiency of 100% at inhibitor concentrations in excess of 25 micrograms/ml. At the same concentration of pseudomonic acid A, E. coli strain TG2 infected with pKK223-3 had a plating efficiency less than 1%. The ability of yeast IRS to rescue E. coli from pseudomonic acid A suggests that the eukaryotic synthetase has full activity in its prokaryotic host and has specificity for E. coli tRNA(ile).     

Effect of cysteine residues on the activity of arginyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli.

Arginyl-tRNA synthetase (ArgRS) from Escherichia coli (E. coli) contains four cysteine residues. In this study, the role of cysteine residues in the enzyme has been investigated by chemical modification and site-directed mutagenesis. Titration of sulfhydryl groups in ArgRS by 5, 5'-dithiobis(2-nitro benzoic acid) (DTNB) suggested that a disulfide bond was not formed in the enzyme and that, in the native condition, two DTNB-sensitive cysteine residues were located on the surface of ArgRS, while the other two were buried inside. Chemical modification of the native enzyme by iodoacetamide (IAA) affected only one DTNB-sensitive cysteine residue and resulted in 50% loss of enzyme activity, while modification by N-ethylmeimide (NEM) affected two DTNB-sensitive residues and caused a complete loss of activity. These results, when combined with substrate protection experiments, suggested that at least the two cysteine residues located on the surface of the molecule were directly involved in substrates binding and catalysis. However, changing Cys to Ala only resulted in slight loss of enzymatic activity and substrate binding, suggesting that these four cysteine residues in E. coli ArgRS were not essential to the enzymatic activity. Moreover, modifications of the mutant enzymes indicated that the two DTNB- and NEM-sensitive residues were Cys(320) and Cys(537) and the IAA-sensitive was Cys(320). Our study suggested that inactivation of E. coli ArgRS by sulfhydryl reagents is a result of steric hindrance in the enzyme.
