Abstract:
:The editing function of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) is indispensible for formation of the correct aminoacyl-tRNAs. Editing deficiency may lead to growth inhibition and the pathogenesis of various diseases. Herein, we confirmed that norvaline (Nva) but not isoleucine or valine is the major threat to the editing function of Saccharomyces cerevisiae leucyl-tRNA synthetase (ScLeuRS), both in vitro and in vivo. Nva could be misincorporated into the proteome of the LeuRS editing-deficient yeast strain (D419A/ScΔleuS), potentially resulting in dysfunctional protein folding and growth delay. Furthermore, the exploration of the Nva-induced intracellular stress response mechanism in D419A/ScΔleuS revealed that Hsp70 chaperones were markedly upregulated in response to the potential protein misfolding. Additionally, proline (Pro), glutamate (Glu) and glutamine (Gln), which may accumulate due to the conversion of Nva, collectively contributed to the reduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in Nva-treated D419A/ScΔleuS cells. In conclusion, our study highlights the significance of the editing function of LeuRS and provides clues for understanding the intracellular stress protective mechanisms that are triggered in aaRS editing-deficient organisms.
