Replacement and insertion of nucleotides at the anticodon loop of E. coli tRNAMetf by ligation of chemically synthesized ribooligonucleotides.

Abstract:

:Insertion of the four major nucleotides at the 5'-side of the anticodon triplet of E. coli tRNAMetf was performed by joining of the half molecules obtained by limited digestion with RNase A and the chemically synthesized tetranucleotide pN-C-A-U using RNA ligase. Insertion of U-U at the 5'-side or A and A-A at the 3'-side of the anticodon were also performed using U-U-C-A-U, C-A-U-A and C-A-U-A-A. The constant U next to the 5'-side of the anticodon was replaced with A and C by ligation of A-C-A-U and C-C-A-U to the 5'-half molecule which had been treated with periodate plus lysine, followed by joining to the 3'-half. These modified tRNAs were tested for their ability to accept methionine with the methionyl-tRNA synthetase of E. coli. The affinity of these analogs for the synthetase decreased more extensively when the insertion was at the 3'-side of the anticodon triplet. Insertion of mononucleotides at the 5'-side or replacement of the constant U next to the 5'-side of the anticodon did not affect aminoacylation drastically. This may mean that the 3'-side of the anticodon loop of tRNA is one of the major recognition sites for the methionyl-tRNA synthetase.

  • Intensity-based analysis of two-colour microarrays enables efficient and flexible hybridization designs.

    abstract::In two-colour microarrays, the ratio of signal intensities of two co-hybridized samples is used as a relative measure of gene expression. Ratio-based analysis becomes complicated and inefficient in multi-class comparisons. We therefore investigated the validity of an intensity-based analysis procedure. To this end, tw...
