Abstract:
:The distances between the anticodon loops of fluorescent tRNAPhe bound to the E site and to either the A or the P site of poly(U)-programmed Escherichia coli ribosomes were measured by fluorescence energy transfer. Donor and acceptor molecules were wybutine and proflavin, respectively, both located 3' to the anticodon of tRNAPhe. The anticodon loops were found to be separated by 42 +/- 10 A (A to E site) and 34 +/- 8 A (P to E site). The latter distance is much larger than the one measured between the anticodon loops of A and P site bound tRNAs [24 +/- 4 A; Paulsen, H., Robertson, J. M., & Wintermeyer, W. (1983) J. Mol. Biol. 167, 411-426], rendering unlikely simultaneous codon-anticodon interaction in the P and E sites. In kinetic stopped-flow measurements, the energy transfer between the anticodon loops of the tRNA molecules was followed during translocation. The transfer efficiency decreases in three steps with apparent rate constants on the order of 1, 0.1, and 0.01 s-1. The fast step is ascribed to the simultaneous displacement of the deacylated tRNAPhe out of the P site and of the N-AcPhe-tRNAPhe from the A site to the P site. The distance between the anticodon loops does not change appreciably during this reaction. A significant separation of the two tRNAs occurs during the intermediate and the slow steps. The latter most likely represents a rearrangement of the posttranslocation complex containing both tRNA molecules.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
