Role of domains in Escherichia coli and mammalian mitochondrial elongation factor Ts in the interaction with elongation factor Tu.
Bovine mitochondrial elongation factor Ts (EF-Tsmt) stimulates the activity of Escherichia coli elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu). In contrast, E. coli EF-Ts is unable to stimulate mitochondrial EF-Tu. EF-Tsmt forms a tight complex with E. coli EF-Tu governed by an association constant of 8.6 x 10(10). This value is 100-fold stronger than the binding constant for the formation of the E. coli EF-Tu.T...
متن کاملInteraction of mitochondrial elongation factor Tu with aminoacyl-tRNA and elongation factor Ts.
Elongation factor (EF) Tu promotes the binding of aminoacyl-tRNA (aa-tRNA) to the acceptor site of the ribosome. This process requires the formation of a ternary complex (EF-Tu.GTP.aa-tRNA). EF-Tu is released from the ribosome as an EF-Tu.GDP complex. Exchange of GDP for GTP is carried out through the formation of a complex with EF-Ts (EF-Tu.Ts). Mammalian mitochondrial EF-Tu (EF-Tu(mt)) differ...
متن کاملThe identification of a domain in Escherichia coli elongation factor Tu that interacts with elongation factor Ts.
A method has been developed to search for the elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) domain(s) that interact with elongation factor Ts (EF-Ts). This method is based on the suppression of Escherichia coli EF-Tu-dominant negative mutation K136E, a mutation that exerts its effect by sequestering EF-Ts. We have identified nine single-amino acid- substituted suppression mutations in the region 146-199 of EF-T...
متن کاملInteraction of the isolated domain II/III of Thermus thermophilus elongation factor Tu with the nucleotide exchange factor EF-Ts.
The middle and C-terminal domain (domain II/III) of elongation factor Tu from Thermus thermophilus lacking the GTP/GDP binding domain have been prepared by treating nucleotide-free protein with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease. The isolated domain II/III of EF-Tu has a compact structure and high resistance against tryptic treatment and thermal denaturation. As demonstrated by circular dichrois...
متن کاملChronic ethanol feeding causes depression of mitochondrial elongation factor Tu in the rat liver: implications for the mitochondrial ribosome.
Chronic ethanol feeding is known to negatively impact hepatic energy metabolism. Previous studies have indicated that the underlying lesion responsible for this may lie at the level of the mitoribosome. The aim of this study was to characterize the structure of the hepatic mitoribosome in alcoholic male rats and their isocalorically paired controls. Our experiments revealed that chronic ethanol...
