Pactamycin, an inhibitor of the initial steps of protein synthesis, has an acetophenone group in its chemical structure that makes the drug a potentially photoreactive molecule. In addition, the presence of a phenolic residue makes it easily susceptible to radioactive labeling. Through iodination, one radioactive derivative of pactamycin has been obtained with biological activities similar to the unmodified drug when tested on in vivo and cell-free systems. With the use of [125I]iodopactamycin, ribosomes of Escherichia coli have been photolabeled under conditions that preserve the activity of the particles and guarantee the specificity of the binding sites. Under these conditions, RNA is preferentially labeled when free, small ribosomal subunits are photolabeled, but proteins are the main target in the whole ribosome. This indicates that an important conformational change takes place in the binding site on association of the two subunits. The major labeled proteins are S2, S4, S18, S21, and L13. These proteins in the pactamycin binding site are probably related to the initiation step of protein synthesis.  相似文献

Trichodermin, a eukaryotic-specific antibiotic, inhibits protein synthesis in Drosophila cells. We have synthesized a 14C-labeled bromoacetyl derivative of trichodermin that binds to Drosophila 80S ribosomes and once bound reacts covalently with ribosomal proteins. It does not react with rRNA. Three large-subunit proteins (L1, L3, and L24) and three small-subunit proteins (S3/S5, 2/3S, and S8) are labeled by [14C] (bromoacetyl)trichodermin. Reaction with each of these proteins can be competed by an excess of unmodified trichodermin, indicating that the labeling has occurred from the native binding site of the parent drug. One of the (bromoacetyl)trichodermin-labeled proteins (S8) is also labeled by photoactivated puromycin in the A site. A second protein (S3/S5) is found to be labeled by a P-site affinity reagent. The results suggest that the trichodermin binding site spans both the small and large subunits and portions of both the A and P sites. These data combined with previous studies on the A and P sites of Drosophila ribosomes have allowed us to construct a model of the protein locations in this important active site.  相似文献

The binding site of the peptidyl group of peptidyl-tRNA in the P site of Drosophila ribosomes was probed with (bromoacetyl)phenylalanyl-tRNA (BrAcPhe-tRNA). This affinity label binds specifically to the P site by virtue of its ability to participate in peptide bond formation with puromycin following its attachment to ribosomes. As many as nine ribosomal proteins may be labeled under these conditions; however, the majority of the labeling is associated with three large-subunit proteins and two small-subunit proteins. Two of the large-subunit proteins, L4 and L27, are electrophoretically very similar to the proteins labeled by the same reagent in Escherichia coli ribosomes L2 and L27. Reexamination by a different two-dimensional gel system of the ribosomal components labeled by a second P site reagent, the 3' pentanucleotide fragment of N-acetylleucyl-tRNA which is derivatized to contain mercury atoms at the C-5 position of all three cytosine residues, shows two major and three minor labeled proteins. These proteins, L10/L11, L26, S1/S4, S13, and S20, are likely present in the binding site of the 3' end of peptidyl-tRNA, a site that appears to span both subunits. These results have allowed us to construct a model for the protein positions in and near the peptidyl-tRNA binding site of Drosophila ribosomes.  相似文献

Heptauridylate bearing a radioactive alkylating [14C]-4-(N-2-chloroethyl-N-methylamino)benzylamine attached to the 5-phosphate via amide bond, was bound to ribosomes and small ribosomal subunits from rat liver which thereby were coded to bind N-acylated Phe tRNA. After completion of the alkylating reaction and subsequent hydrolysis of the phosphamide bond ribosomal proteins were isolated. Radioactivity was found covalently associated preferentially with protein S26 and, to a very small extent, with proteins S3 and S3a. The affinity labelling reaction could be abolished by (pU)14 and poly(U). From the results it is concluded that ribosomal protein S26 is located at the mRNA binding site of rat liver ribosomes.  相似文献

[3H]Puromycin covalently incorporates into the protein and to a much lesser extent into the RNA components of Drosophila ribosomes in the presence of 254-nm light. The photoincorporation reaction takes place with a small number of large- (L2 and L17) and small- (S8 and S22) subunit proteins as determined by two-dimensional gel analysis. More quantitative one-dimensional gel results show that puromycin reacts with each of these proteins in a functional site specific manner. The small percentage of the total labeling that occurs with rRNA also appears to be site specific. The rRNA labeling arises from a puromycin-mediated cross-linking of ribosomal protein and rRNA. Ionic conditions shift the pattern of puromycin-labeled ribosomal proteins. These results suggest that puromycin can occupy two distinct sites on Drosophila 80S ribosomes. The pattern of ribosomal proteins labeled by puromycin is affected by the presence of other antibiotics such as emetine, anisomycin, and trichodermin.  相似文献

The interaction of ribosomal proteins with mRNA in the 40S initiation complex was examined by chemical cross-linking. 40S initiation complexes were formed by incubating rat liver [(3)H]Met-tRNAi, rat liver 40S ribosomal subunits, rabbit globin mRNA, and partially purified initiation factors of rabbit reticulocytes in the presence of guanylyl(beta, gamma-methylene)-diphosphonate. The initiation complexes were then treated with 1,3-butadiene diepoxide to introduce crosslinks between the mRNA and proteins. The covalent mRNA-protein conjugates were isolated by chromatography on an oligo(dT) cellulose column in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, followed by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Proteins cross-linked to the mRNA were labeled with Na(125)I, extracted by extensive ribonuclease digestion, and analyzed by two-dimensional and diagonal polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Three ribosomal proteins, S6, S8, and S23/S24, together with small amounts of S3/S3a, S27, and S30, were identified as the protein components cross-linked to the globin mRNA protein complex, and were shown to attach directly to the mRNA. It is suggested that these proteins constitute the ribosomal binding site for mRNA in the 40S initiation complex.  相似文献

Iodoacetylphenylalanyl-tRNAPhe was used as an affinity label to localize the ribosomal components involved in the peptidyl transferase catalytic center of Escherichia coli ribosomes. When labeling was carried out at pH 5.0, the affinity label could specifically label the ribosomal components which comprise the catalytic center. Analysis of ribosomal proteins which had reacted with the affinity label revealed that a 30 S subunit protein, S 20, was located at or near to the ribosomal binding site of the 3-terminus of aminoacyl- or peptidyl-tRNA.  相似文献

Periodate-oxidized tRNA (tRNAox), the 2′,3′-dialdehyde derivative of tRNA, was used as a zero-length active site-directed affinity labeling reagent, to covalently label proteins at the binding site for the 3′-end of tRNA on human 80S ribosomes. When human 80S ribosomes were reacted with tRNAAspox positioned at the P-site, in the presence of an appropriate 12 mer mRNA, a set of two tRNAox-labeled ribosomal proteins (rPs) was observed. The majorily labeled protein was identified as the large subunit rP L36a-like (RPL36AL) by means of mass spectrometry. Intact tRNAAsp competed with tRNAAspox for the binding to the P-site, by preventing tRNA-protein cross-linking with RPL36AL. Altogether, the data presented in this report are consistent with the presence of RPL36AL at or near the binding site for the CCA end of the tRNA substrate positioned at the P-site of human 80S ribosomes. It is the first time that a ribosomal protein is found in an intimate contact (i.e. at a zero-distance) with a nucleotide of the conserved CCA terminus of P-site tRNA which is the substrate of peptidyl transferase reaction. RPL36AL which is strongly conserved in eukaryotes belongs to the L44e family of rPs, a representative of which is Haloarcula marismortui RPL44e.  相似文献

The reaction of a bromoacetamidophenyl derivative of the initiation codon A-U-G (A-U-G) with tight couples of Escherichia coli ribosomes leads to an exclusive crosslinking of label to protein S18. This crosslinking inhibits A-U-G-directed fMet-tRNAfMet binding into the puromycin-sensitive site of ribosomes and stimulates elongation-factor-dependent binding of Met-tRNAmMet. It is, therefore, concluded that protein S18 is located at or near the aminoacyl-tRNA binding site of E. coli ribosomes. Peptide as well as amino acid analysis shows that the reaction between A-U-G and ribosomes took place at cysteine-10 of protein S18. A-U-G could not be crosslinked to ribosomal proteins of the temperature-sensitive E. coli strain 258ts, where arginine-11 of protein S18 is replaced by a cysteine residue.  相似文献

The macrolide antibiotics carbomycin A, niddamycin, and tylosin have been radioactively labeled by reducing their aldehyde group at the C-18 position. Dihydro derivatives with specific activities around 2.5 Ci/mmol can be obtained that, although partially affected in their activity, still bind to the ribosomes with high affinity. The presence in the chemical structure of these antibiotics of alpha-beta-unsaturated ketone groups makes them photochemically reactive, and by irradiation above 300 nm, covalent incorporation of the radioactive dihydro derivatives into ribosomes has been achieved. The covalent binding seems to take place at the specific binding sites for macrolides as deduced from binding saturation studies and competition experiments with unmodified drugs. Analysis of the ribosomal components labeled by the drugs indicated that most radioactivity is associated with the proteins L27, L2, and L28 when 50S subunits are labeled, and with L27, L2, L32/33, S9, and S12 in the case of 70S ribosomes. These results agree well with a model of macrolides' mode of action that assumes an interaction of the drug at the peptidyl transferase P site that would block the exit channel for the growing peptide chain.  相似文献

Optimal conditions for reductive alkylation of ribosomal proteins in their native and denatured states were examined. The relative accessibility of rat liver ribosomal proteins to reductive alkylation was then examined. Intact ribosomes were firs labeled with [14C]formaldehyde and NaBH4. The proteins were then separated from RNA, denatured in 6 M guanidine, and labeled again using formaldehyde and NaB3H4. The relative accessibility of individual proteins to labeling in the intact state could thus be determined from their 3H/14C ratios following separation by two-dimensional electrophoresis. The results suggest that proteins S6, S11, S26, L3, and L35 are less accessible to labeling while proteins S1, S15, L11, L12, L16, and L24 appear relatively more accessible. The accessibility of individual proteins in ribosomes in different conformational states were then compared. The results indicated that S3, L7, and L36 are likely to be involved in a structural difference when normal polysomes and normal monomers are compared. Also, that S26 and L35, and probably S3, S20, L7, L8, L24, L27, L28 and L34 appear to be involved in a ribosomal conformation change induced by ethionine intoxication.  相似文献

Monospecific polyclonal antibodies against seven proteins of the 40 S subunit of rat liver ribosomes were used to identify ribosomal proteins involved in interaction with initiation factor eIF-2 in the quaternary initiation complex [eIF-2 X GMPPCP X [3H]Met-tRNAf X 40 S ribosomal subunit]. Dimeric immune complexes of 40 S subunits mediated by antibodies against ribosomal proteins S3a, S13/16, S19 and S24 were found to be unable to bind the ternary initiation complex [eIF-2 X GMPPCP X [3H]Met-tRNAf]. In contrast, 40 S dimers mediated by antibodies against proteins S2, S3 and S17 were found to bind the ternary complex. Therefore, from the ribosomal proteins tested, only proteins S3a, S13/16, S19 and S24 are concluded to be involved in eIF-2 binding to the 40 S subunit.  相似文献

Elongation factor-dependent affinity labeling of Escherichia coli ribosomes was obtained using a functional analogue of aminoacyl-tRNA. Since elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) screens both the modified aminoacyl-tRNAs and the ribosomal complexes for active particles, only functional macromolecular complexes are examined. This approach also provides an unequivocal identification of the transfer RNA binding site from which affinity labeling occurs. Nε-bromoacetyl-Lys-tRNA was prepared by covalently attaching an electrophilic group to the side-chain of the amino acid. This chemical modification did not interfere with function, since the ?BrAcLys-tRNA participated successfully in EF-Tu and poly(rA)-dependent binding to ribosomes, peptide bond formation, and elongation factor G (EF-G)-mediated translocation. Affinity labeling of ribosomal RNA was observed only in those incubations which contained both EF-Tu and EF-G. The crosslinking of ?BrAcLys-tRNA to 23 S rRNA was found even if fusidic acid was added to the incubation before EF-G. The dependence of the covalent reaction on EF-G demonstrates, unambiguously, that a reactive residue of 23 S rRNA is located adjacent to the 3′ end of the functionally defined P site. Similarly, the affinity labeling of proteins L13/14/15, L2, L32/33, and L24 required EF-G-dependent translocation of ?BrAcLys-tRNA into the P site. Protein L27 was alkylated following the EF-Tu-dependent binding of ?BrAcLys-tRNA to the ribosome, and the extent of affinity labeling was stimulated by the addition of EF-G to the incubation. Double-label dipeptide experiments confirmed that affinity labeling occurred from functional tRNA binding sites by demonstrating that the same ?BrAcLys-tRNA which reacted covalently with 23 S rRNA or a ribosomal protein could also participate in peptide bond formation. Finally, the ribosome affinity labeling obtained with ?BrAcLys-tRNA · EF-Tu · guanylylimidodiphosphate differed little from that obtained with ?BrAcLys-tRNA · EF-Tu · GTP. This work constitutes the first direct examination of the aminoacyl ends of the EF-Tu-dependent conformational states of the ribosomal complex, and demonstrates the potential value of functional Lys-tRNA analogues with different probes attached to the lysine side-chain.  相似文献

Reaction of the affinity-labeling reagent N-bromoacetyl-[14C]phenylalanyl-tRNA with Escherichia coli ribosomes results in covalent labeling of 23 S ribosomal RNA in addition to the previously reported labeling of ribosomal proteins. The reaction with the 23 S RNA is absolutely dependent on the presence of messenger RNA. Covalent attachment of the affinity label to 23 S RNA was demonstrated by its integrity in strongly dissociating solvents, and the conversion of the labeled material to small oligonucleotides by ribonuclease treatment. After digestion of labeled 23 S RNA with T1 ribonuclease, the radioactivity is found mainly in two oligonucleotide fragments. These results support models in which both ribosomal RNA and ribosomal protein contribute to the structure of the region of the ribosome surrounding the peptidyl transferase center.  相似文献

The proteins of the subunits of rat liver ribosomes were fractionated by stepwise elution from carboxymethylcellulose with LiCl at pH 6.5. The 40 S ribosomal proteins were separated into five groups containing between 3 and 14 proteins; the 60 S proteins, into seven groups of 3 to 15. Only a comparatively small number of proteins occurred in appreciable amounts in more than one group. The number of relatively acidic proteins associated with the ribosomal subunits was larger than had been reported before: it is not known if they are initiation or translation factors or ribosomal structural proteins. The group fractionation procedure has proven valuable as the initial step in the isolation and characterization of rat liver ribosomal proteins.  相似文献

The topography of 5.8 rRNA in rat liver ribosomes has been examined by comparing diethyl pyrocarbonate-reactive sites in free 5.8 S RNA, the 5.8 S-28 rRNA complex, 60 S subunits, and whole ribosomes. The ribosomal components were treated with diethyl pyrocarbonate under salt and temperature conditions which allow cell-free protein synthesis; the 5.8 S rRNA was extracted, labeled in vitro, chemically cleaved with aniline, and the fragments were analyzed by rapid gel-sequencing techniques. Differences in the cleavage patterns of free and 28 S or ribosome-associated 5.8 S rRNA suggest that conformational changes occur when this molecule is assembled into ribosomes. In whole ribosomes, the reactive sites were largely restricted to the "AU-rich" stem and an increased reactivity at some of the nucleotides suggested that a major change occurs in this region when the RNA interacts with ribosomal proteins. The reactivity was generally much less restricted in 60 S subunits but increased reactivity in some residues was also observed. The results further indicate that in rat ribosomes, the two -G-A-A-C- sequences, putative binding sites for tRNA, are accessible in 60 S subunits but not in whole ribosomes and suggest that part of the molecule may be located in the ribosomal interface. When compared to 5 S rRNA, the free 5.8 S RNA molecule appears to be generally more reactive with diethyl pyrocarbonate and the cleavage patterns suggest that the 5 S RNA molecule is completely restricted or buried in whole ribosomes.  相似文献

The chemically reactive analog of U-G-A, 5'-(4-(Bromo-[2-14C] acetamido) phenylphospho) - uridylyl-(3'-5') - guanylyl-(3'-5') adenosine has a 20 fold lower affinity to 70S ribosomes than the corresponding analog of A-U-G though the U-G-A analog also preferentially reacts with protein S18 of 70S ribosomes. This reaction programs ribosomes for EF-T dependent Trp-tRNATrp-suIII binding. Therefore, it is concluded that this protein is part of the A'-site of the ribosomal codon binding site. Reaction of the U-G-A analog with 30S subunits lead to a predominant crosslinking of U-G-A to proteins S4 and S18. In contrast, a comparable reaction of the A-U-G analog with 30S subunits lead to a predominant crosslinking of A-U-G to proteins S4 and S12 (Pongs, O., Stoffler, G.A., Lanka, E., (1975) J. Mol. Biol. 99, 301). Since protein S12 is located at the 'P' site of the ribosomal codon binding site, it is proposed that the U-G-A analog does not bind at this site.  相似文献

Results are presented to prove that bromoacetyl-phenylalanyl-transfer RNA reacts covalently with 50 S ribosomal proteins L2 and L27 while it is bound correctly to the peptidyl site on the 70 S ribosome. Attachment of the BrAcPhe moiety to tRNA causes a 100-fold enhancement of its reactivity with ribosomes. This reactivity closely parallels binding of tRNA whether measured by poly(U) stimulation or competition with deacylated tRNA. BrAcPhe-tRNA can bind correctly to the P site as judged by puromycin releasibility and lack of tetracycline inhibition. Little significant reaction of BrAcPhe-tRNA with L2 and L27 occurs during procedures used to purify and analyze ribosomal proteins. If ribosomes are first incubated with BrAcPhe-tRNA and subsequently treated with puromycin before analysis, little inhibition of the covalent reaction with L2 and L27 is observed. In contrast, a few minor reaction products are markedly suppressed. Covalently attached BrAcPhe-tRNA is still capable of accepting an amino acid from Phe-tRNA or puromycin. The products from this reaction are found attached to proteins L2 and L27 and to a lesser extent to L15 and L16. This shows that true affinity labeling of proteins in the peptidyl binding site has been accomplished.Some covalent reaction of BrAcPhe-tRNA with the 30 S protein S18 is also observed. This reaction is not poly(U)-dependent, however, and S18-reacted BrAcPhe-tRNA is not capable of peptide bond formation with Phe-tRNA. It seems likely that reaction with S18 results from a non-functional interaction of the affinity label with the ribosome.  相似文献

A comparison of the proteins of chicken and rat liver ribosomes using immunochemical techniques was undertaken. The procedures included quantitative precipitation, passive hemagglutination, and immunodiffusion on Ouchterlony plates. The results indicate that antisera specific for chicken or rat liver ribosomes recognize only about 20% of common determinants. While there are important reservations, the results suggest extensive differences in the proteins of rat and chicken liver ribosomes. Despite those differences, rat and chicken liver ribosomal proteins maintain some homologous sequences present in bacterial ribosomal proteins. An enriched antibody preparation against chicken 80 S ribosomes inhibited the poly(U)-directed synthesis of polyphenylalanine and the elongation factor G (EF-G)-catalyzed binding of [3H]GDP to Escherichia coli ribosomes. Thus, chicken liver ribosomes, like ribosomes from rat liver and yeast, must have proteins homologous with those of E. coli ribosomes.  相似文献

Summary We have identified proteins involved in the peptidyl-tRNA-binding site of rat liver ribosomes, using an affinity label designed specifically to probe the P-site in eukaryotic peptidyl transferase. The label is a 3-terminal pentanucleotide fragment of N-acetylleucyl-tRNA in which mercury atoms have been added at the C-5 position of the three cytosine residues. This mercurated fragment can bind to rat liver peptidyl transferase and function as a donor of N-acetylleucine to puromycin. Concommitant with this binding, the mercury atoms present in the fragment can form a covalent linkage with a small number of ribosomal proteins. The major proteins labeled by this reagent are L5 and L36A. Four protein spots are found labeled to a lesser extent: L10, L7/7a, L3/4 and L25/31. Each of these proteins, therefore, is implicated in the binding of the 3-terminus of peptidyl-tRNA.The results presented here are correlated with other investigations of the structure-function aspects of rat liver peptidyl transferase. Using these data, we have constructed a model for the arrangement of proteins within this active site.  相似文献
