Cross-linked amino acids in the protein pair S13-S19 and sequence analysis of protein S13 of Bacillus stearothermophilus ribosomes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The 30S ribosomal subunits from Bacillus stearothermophilus were cross-linked under native conditions with the bifunctional reagent diepoxybutane. The dominant protein-protein cross-link in the 30S ribosomal subunit between proteins S13 and S19 [Brockm?ller, J., & Kamp, R.M. (1986) Biol. Chem. Hoppe-Seyler 367, 925-935] was isolated on a preparative scale. The presence of a single cross-link site between cysteine-83 of protein S13 and histidine-68 of protein S19 was established by microsequence analysis of isolated cross-linked peptides. This cross-link site was further confirmed by different analytical methods including fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry of the cross-linked peptide. The cross-linking site is located in the highly conserved C-terminal regions of proteins S13 and S19. In addition, the complete amino acid sequence of protein S13 from B. stearothermophilus is determined. Sequence comparison with the homologous Escherichia coli protein S13 revealed 58% identical amino acid residues. 相似文献

We have investigated protein-rRNA cross-links formed in 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits of Escherichia coli and Bacillus stearothermophilus at the molecular level using UV and 2-iminothiolane as cross-linking agents. We identified amino acids cross-linked to rRNA for 13 ribosomal proteins from these organisms, namely derived from S3, S4, S7, S14, S17, L2, L4, L6, L14, L27, L28, L29 and L36. Several other peptide stretches cross-linked to rRNA have been sequenced in which no direct cross-linked amino acid could be detected. The cross-linked amino acids are positioned within loop domains carrying RNA binding features such as conserved basic and aromatic residues. One of the cross-linked peptides in ribosomal protein S3 shows a common primary sequence motif--the KH motif--directly involved in interaction with rRNA, and the cross-linked amino acid in ribosomal protein L36 lies within the zinc finger-like motif of this protein. The cross-linked amino acids in ribosomal proteins S17 and L6 prove the proposed RNA interacting site derived from three-dimensional models. A comparison of our structural data with mutations in ribosomal proteins that lead to antibiotic resistance, and with those from protein-antibiotic cross-linking experiments, reveals functional implications for ribosomal proteins that interact with rRNA. 相似文献

Cross-linking of proteins within the small subunit of rat liver ribosomes by the bifunctional reagent dimethyl 4,7-dioxo-5,6-dihydroxy-3,8-diazadecanbisimidate produced numerous covalently linked protein dimers which could be separated by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography on carboxymethyl cellulose and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The protein components of the dimers were identified electrophoretically after periodate cleavage of the cross-link(s). The analysis revealed 42 cross-linked dimers involving 25 different proteins. Among these, proteins S3, S4 and S20 occurred in combinations with six, eight and seven different proteins, respectively. For proteins S13, S14 and S17 five protein neighbours could be identified, while 13 of the remaining proteins were linked to three or four different protein partners. The involvement of the majority of proteins in the formation of multiple cross-linked dimers implies that a large number of protein-protein interaction sites exist within the ribosomal subunit. A preliminary model illustrating the arrangement of 16 proteins in the small ribosomal subunit is presented and discussed with respect to possible functions, especially in the event of translation initiation. 相似文献

We have used the reversible, bifunctional reagent ethylene glycol bis[3-(2-ketobutyraldehyde) ether] to cross-link RNA to protein within intact ribosomal subunits from Escherichia coli. Here we describe the synthesis of this compound (termed bikethoxal) and demonstrate its ability to form covalent attachments between RNA and protein in the 5S RNA-L18 complex and within 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits. The reagent is a symmetrical dicarbonyl compound and reacts with guanine in single-stranded RNA and with arginine in protein. RNA-protein cross-links generated with this reagent are stable, as demonstrated by the comigration of 35S-labeled ribosomal proteins with ribosomal RNA on neutrally buffered sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-agarose gels. However, the cross-linked product is unstable in mildly basic conditions, allowing the identification of the linked macromolecules by conventional techniques. The reagent is potentially capable of cross-linking any combination of single-stranded RNA, single-stranded DNA, or protein; it should prove a useful probe of the RNA-protein proximities within the E. coli ribosome, since the SDS-agarose gel system we describe provides a rapid method of optimizing this RNA--protein cross-linking reaction. 相似文献

When Escherichia coli 30 S ribosomal subunits are reacted with protein-protein bifunctional reagents, a number of protein pairs as well as aggregates containing three or more ribosomal proteins are formed. In the present study we have purified one of the protein pairs obtained by reaction of 30 S ribosomal subunits with either radioactive or nonradioactive dimethylsuberimidate. Following molecular weight determination and ammonolysis, the pair was shown to consist of ribosomal proteins S5 and S8. The "native" structure of the complex was surmised from its capacity to be reconstituted into a biologically active 30 S ribosomal subunit. From peptide maps and primary structure determination of various peptides it was demonstrated that the cross-linking bond between ribosomal proteins S5 and S8 involves primarily the residues Lys-93 of protein S8 and the COOH-terminal lysine (Lys-166) of ribosomal protein S5. This result is substantiated by the finding that a mutant carrying an altered S5 lacking the COOH-terminal lysine yields a greatly reduced amount of S5-S8 cross-link. In addition to the points of cross-linking it was found that Lys-30, Lys-68, and Lys-86 of S8 and Lys-5 of S5 react with dimethylsuberimidate, indicating that these residues are available for reaction and suggesting their topographical localization on the ribosomal surface. 相似文献

The effects of other components of the initiation complex on Escherichia coli initiation factor IFI binding to 30 S ribosomal subunits were studied. Binding of [14C]IF1 in the absence of other initiation complex components was slight. Addition of either IF2 or IF3 stimulated binding to a variable extent. Maximum binding was observed when both IF2 and IF3 were present. Addition of GTP, fMet-tRNA, and phage R17 RNA caused little or no further stimulation of [14C]IF1 binding. A maximum of 0.5 molecule of [14C]IF1 bound per 30 S subunit in the presence of an excess of each of the three factors over 30 S subunits.Complexes of 30 S subunits, [14C]IF1, IF2, and IF3 were treated with the bifunctional protein cross-linking reagent dimethyl suberimidate in order to identify the ribosomal proteins near the binding site for IF1. Non-cross-linked [14C]IF1 was removed from the complexes by sedimentation through buffer containing a high salt concentration, and total protein was extracted from the pelleted particles. Approximately 12% of the [14C]IF1 was recovered in the pellet fraction. The mixture of cross-linked products was analyzed by polyacrylamide/sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. Autoradiography of the gel showed radioactive bands with molecular weights of 21,000, 25,000, and many greater than 120,000. The results indicate that [14C]IF1 was cross-linked directly to at least two ribosomal proteins. Analysis of the cross-linked mixture by radioimmunodiffusion with specific antisera prepared against each of the 30 S ribosomal proteins showed radioactivity in the precipitin bands formed with antisera against S12 and S19, and in lower yield with those against S1 and S13. Antiserum against IF2 also showed [14C]IF1 in the precipitin band. The results show that [14C]IF1 was present in covalently cross-linked complexes containing 30 S ribosomal proteins S1, S12, S13 and S19, and initiation factor IF2. The same ribosomal proteins have been implicated in the binding sites for IF2 and IF3. The results suggest that the three initiation factors bind to the 30 S subunit at the same or overlapping sites. 相似文献

We have carried out an extensive protein-protein cross-linking study on the 50S ribosomal subunit of Escherichia coli using four different cross-linking reagents of varying length and specificity. For the unambiguous identification of the members of the cross-linked protein complexes, immunoblotting techniques using antisera specific for each individual ribosomal protein have been used, and for each cross-link, the cross-linking yield has been determined. With the smallest cross-linking reagent diepoxybutane (4 A), four cross-links have been identified, namely, L3-L19, L10-L11, L13-L21, and L14-L19. With the sulfhydryl-specific cross-linking reagent o-phenylenedimaleimide (5.2 A) and p-phenylenedimaleimide (12 A), the cross-links L2-L9, L3-L13, L3-L19, L9-L28, L13-L20, L14-L19, L16-L27, L17-L32, and L20-L21 were formed; in addition, the cross-link L23-L29 was exclusively found with the shorter o-phenylenedimaleimide. The cross-links obtained with dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) (12 A) were L1-L33, L2-L9, L2-L9-L28, L3-L19, L9-L28, L13-L21, L14-L19, L16-L27, L17-L32, L19-L25, L20-L21, and L23-L34. The good agreement of the cross-links obtained with the different cross-linking reagents used in this study demonstrates the reliability of our cross-linking approach. Incorporation of our cross-linking results into the three-dimensional model of the 50S ribosomal subunit derived from immunoelectron microscopy yields the locations for 29 of the 33 proteins within the larger ribosomal subunit. 相似文献

Complexes of 30 S subunits and [14C]IF3 were allowed to react with the protein cross-linking reagents, N,N′-p-phenylenedimaleimide or dimethylsuberimidate. Non-cross-linked IF3 was removed from the complex by centrifugation in a buffer containing a high salt concentration, and the total protein was extracted from the pelleted particles. The mixture of cross-linked products was analyzed by radioimmunodiffusion with antisera prepared against all of the individual 30 S ribosomal proteins. Radioactivity was found in the precipitin bands formed with antisera against ribosomal proteins S1, S11, S12, S13, S19 and S21. The results show that IF3 was present in covalent cross-linked complexes containing those 30 S ribosomal proteins and imply that they comprise or are near the binding site for initiation factor IF3. 相似文献

Cross-linking technology combined with tandem mass spectrometry (MS-MS) is a powerful method that provides a rapid solution to the discovery of protein-protein interactions and protein structures. We studied the problem of detecting cross-linked peptides and cross-linked amino acids from tandem mass spectral data. Our method consists of two steps: the first step finds two protein subsequences whose mass sum equals a given mass measured from the mass spectrometry; and the second step finds the best cross-linked amino acids in these two peptide sequences that are optimally correlated to a given tandem mass spectrum. We designed fast and space-efficient algorithms for these two steps and implemented and tested them on experimental data of cross-linked hemoglobin proteins. An interchain cross-link between two beta subunits was found in two tandem mass spectra. The length of the cross-linker (7.7 A) is very close to the actual distance (8.18 A) obtained from the molecular structure in PDB. 相似文献

A new approach allowing detection of contact points between RNAs and proteins has been developed using trans-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) as the cross-linking reagent. The advantage of the method relies on the fact that the coordination bonds between platinum and the potential acceptors on proteins and nucleic acids (mainly S of cysteine or methionine residues; N of imidazole rings in histidine residues; N7 of guanine, N1 of adenine, and N3 of cytosine residues) can be reversed, so that the cross-linked oligonucleotides or peptides in contact within a complex can be analyzed directly. The method was worked out with the ribosome from Escherichia coli and the tRNAVal/valyl-tRNA synthetase system from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In the first system the platinum approach permitted detection of ribosomal proteins cross-linked to 16S rRNA within the 30S subunits (mainly S18 and to a lower extent S3, S4, S11, and S13/S14); in the second system major oligonucleotides of tRNAVal cross-linked to valyl-tRNA synthetase were detected in the anticodon stem and loop, in the variable loop, and in the 3' terminal amino acid accepting region. These results are discussed in light of the current knowledge on ribosome and tRNAs and of potential applications of the methodology. 相似文献

Cross-linking combined with mass spectrometry is an emerging approach for studying protein structure and protein-protein interactions. However, unambiguous mass spectrometric identification of cross-linked peptides derived from proteolytically digested cross-linked proteins is still challenging. Here we describe the use of a novel cross-linker, bimane bisthiopropionic acid N-succinimidyl ester (BiPS), that overcomes many of the challenges associated with other cross-linking reagents. BiPS is distinguished from other cross-linkers by a unique combination of properties: it is photocleavable, fluorescent, homobifunctional, amine-reactive, and isotopically coded. As demonstrated with a model protein complex, RNase S, the fluorescent moiety of BiPS allows for sensitive and specific monitoring of the different cross-linking steps, including detection and isolation of cross-linked proteins by gel electrophoresis, determination of in-gel digestion completion, and fluorescence-based separation of cross-linked peptides by HPLC. The isotopic coding of BiPS results in characteristic ion signal "doublets" in mass spectra, thereby permitting ready detection of cross-linker-containing peptides. Under MALDI-MS conditions, partial photocleavage of the cross-linker occurs, releasing the cross-linked peptides. This allows differentiation between dead-end, intra-, and interpeptide cross-links based on losses of specific mass fragments. It also allows the use of the isotope doublets as mass spectrometric "signatures." A software program was developed that permits automatic cross-link identification and assignment of the cross-link type. Furthermore photocleavage of BiPS assists in cross-link identification by allowing separate tandem mass spectrometry sequencing of each peptide comprising the original cross-link. By combining the use of BiPS with MS, we have provided the first direct evidence for the docking site of a phosphorylated G-protein-coupled receptor C terminus on the multifunctional adaptor protein beta-arrestin, clearly demonstrating the broad potential and application of this novel cross-linker in structural and cellular biology. 相似文献

MS analysis of cross-linked peptides can be used to probe protein contact sites in macromolecular complexes. We have developed a photo-cleavable cross-linker that enhances peptide enrichment, improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the cross-linked peptides in mass spectrometry analysis. This cross-linker utilizes nitro-benzyl alcohol group that can be cleaved by UV irradiation and is stable during the multiple washing steps used for peptide enrichment. The enrichment method utilizes a cross-linker that aids in eliminating contamination resulting from protein-based retrieval systems, and thus, facilitates the identification of cross-linked peptides. Homodimeric pilM protein from Pseudomonas aeruginosa 2192 (pilM) was investigated to test the specificity and experimental conditions. As predicted, the known pair of lysine side chains within 14?? was cross-linked. An unexpected cross-link involving the protein's amino terminus was also detected. This is consistent with the predicted mobility of the amino terminus that may bring the amino groups within 19?? of one another in solution. These technical improvements allow this method to be used for investigating protein-protein interactions in complex biological samples. 相似文献

Several proteins from the Bacillus stearothermophilus 30S ribosomal subunit which could not be isolated by conventional open-column chromatography were purified by high-performance liquid chromatography using a semi-preparative reverse-phase C4 column. Protein S19 was purified by this technique and the complete amino acid sequence determined. Protein S19 was fragmented and the peptides isolated in picomole quantities were sequenced by an improved manual 4-N,N-dimethylaminoazobenzene-4'-isothiocyanate (DABITC) technique; the presence of five consecutive C-terminal lysines in the S19 sequence was confirmed by gas-phase sequencing and fast-atom-bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry. Protein S19 is composed of 91 amino acid residues which correspond to a molecular mass of 10,428 Da. 71% of the B. stearothermophilus S19 sequence was found to be identical with the corresponding ribosomal protein from Escherichia coli [Yaguchi and Wittmann (1978), FEBS Lett. 88, 227] and both sequences can be aligned without gaps. Among the known 26 amino acid sequences of the B. stearothermophilus and E. coli ribosome such a high degree of conservation has only been observed for a few proteins, all of which are known to be involved in the protein biosynthesis process. Although a clear function has not yet been assigned to protein S19, its high sequence conservation in these two eubacteria clearly indicates an important role of this protein for the function of the ribosome. 相似文献

In the quaternary initiation complex, eIF-2.GMPPCP.Met-tRNAf.40S ribosomal subunit, the Met-tRNAf can be cross-linked to the beta subunit of initiation factor eIF-2 as well as to ribosomal proteins S3a and S6 by treatment with the bifunctional reagent, diepoxybutane. Using 40S subunits, modified in advance with the heterobifunctional reagent, methyl-rho-azido-benzoylaminoacetimidate, Met-tRNAf is covalently bound to the same ribosomal proteins (S3a and S6) upon irradiation of the complex with ultraviolet light. Under both conditions proteins S3a and S6, together with a limited number of other ribosomal proteins, are covalently bound to 18S ribosomal RNA. 相似文献

Cross-linking study on localization of the binding site for elongation factor 1 alpha on rat liver ribosomes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Complexes containing rat liver 80 S ribosomes, poly(uridylic acid), phenylalanyl-tRNA, elongation factor 1 alpha, and guanylyl(beta, gamma-methylene)-diphosphonate were prepared. Neighboring proteins in the complexes were cross-linked with the bifunctional reagent 2-iminothiolane. Proteins were extracted and then separated into 26 fractions by chromatography on carboxymethylcellulose. Each protein fraction was subjected to diagonal polyacrylamide-sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. Four cross-linked pairs containing elongation factor 1 alpha were on the vertical line below the diagonal. The ribosomal protein spot of each pair was cut out from the gel plate and labeled with 125I. The labeled proteins were extracted from the gel and identified by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, followed by autoradiography. The following proteins of both 60 S and 40 S subunits were identified: L12, L23, L39, S23/S24, and S26, three proteins of which had been found to be cross-linked also to elongation factor 2 (Uchiumi, T., Kikuchi, M., Terao, K., Iwasaki, K., and Ogata, K. (1986) Eur. J. Biochem. 156, 37-44). These results afford direct evidence that both elongation factors interact with partially overlapping sites on rat liver ribosomes. 相似文献

The covalent structure of rat ribosomal protein L19 was inferred from the sequence of nucleotides in a recombinant cDNA and confirmed from the sequence of amino acids in a portion of the protein. Ribosomal protein L19 contains 196 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 26,971. There are indications that a segment of 23 residues in rat L19 is related to sequences of the same length in Escherichia coli ribosomal proteins L30, L18, and S2. 相似文献

Cross-linking of elongation factor 2 to rat-liver ribosomal proteins by 2-iminothiolane 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Complexes containing rat liver 80S ribosomes treated with puromycin and high concentrations of KCl, elongation factor 2 (EF-2) from pig liver, and guanosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate were prepared. Neighboring proteins in the complexes were cross-linked with the bifunctional reagent 2-iminothiolane. Proteins were extracted and then separated into 22 fractions by chromatography on carboxymethylcellulose of which seven fractions were used for further analyses. Each protein fraction was subjected to diagonal polyacrylamide/sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. Nine cross-linked protein pairs between EF-2 and ribosomal proteins were shifted from the line formed with monomeric proteins. The spots of ribosomal proteins cross-linked to EF-2 were cut out from the gel plate and labelled with 125I. The labelled protein was extracted from the gel and identified by three kinds of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, followed by autoradiography. The following proteins of both large and small subunits were identified: L9, L12, L23, LA33 (acidic protein of Mr 33000), P2, S6 and S23/S24, and L3 and L4 in lower yields. The results are discussed in relation to the topographies of ribosomal proteins in large and small subunits. Furthermore we found new neighboring protein pairs in large subunits, LA33-L11 and LA33-L12. 相似文献

For the identification of neighbor relationships between proteins in biological systems 4-(6-formyl-3-azidophenoxy)butyrimidate (FAPB-imidate), a heterobifunctional, cleavable cross-linker was synthesized. The reagent has an imido ester at one end, which is used for the attachment to amino groups of a specific protein whose environment has to be characterized. At the other end, the reagent has both an azido and an aldehyde group. The azido group can be used to cross-link the protein photochemically to a variety of chemical groups of neighboring proteins. The aldehyde group is able to cross-link the protein by reductive alkylatin to amino groups of neighboring proteins. In both cases, the cross-linker can be made radioactive with NaB3H4. the cross-linked complexes can be split at the band originating from the imidate group by treatment with ammonia. Hereby, the radioactive cross-linker remains covalently attached to the unknown neighboring protein, which can be therefore easily identified. In order to explore the usefulness of FAPB-imidate as a cross-linking agent, the compound was attached to ribosomal protein L7. With this modified L7, the existence of the well-known complex between L7 and ribosomal protein L10 could be demonstrated by the photochemical procedure. By the chemical procedure, the presence of dimers of L7 in solution could be shown. 相似文献

As part of a programme to investigate the path of the nascent peptide through the large ribosomal subunit, peptides of different lengths (up to 30 amino acids), corresponding to the signal peptide sequence and N-terminal region of the Escherichia coli ompA protein, were synthesized in situ on E.coli ribosomes. The peptides each carried a diazirine moiety attached to their N-terminus which, after peptide synthesis, was photoactivated so as to induce cross-links to the 23S rRNA. The results showed that, with increasing length, the peptides became progressively cross-linked to sites in Domains V, II, III and I of the 23S rRNA, in a similar manner to that previously observed with a family of peptides derived from the tetracycline resistance gene. However, the cross-links to Domain III appeared at a shorter peptide length (12 aa) in the case of the ompA sequence, and an additional cross-link in Domain II (localized to nt 780-835) was also observed from this peptide. As with the tetracycline resistance sequence, peptides of all lengths were still able to form cross-links from their N-termini to the peptidyl transferase centre in Domain V. A further set of peptides (30 or 50 aa long), derived from mutants of the bacteriophage T4 gene 60 sequence, did not show the cross-links to Domain III, but their N-termini were nevertheless cross-linked to Domain I and to the sites in Domains II and V. The ability of relatively long peptides to fold back towards the peptidyl transferase centre thus appears to be a general phenomenon. 相似文献
