Abstract:
:The temperature dependence of the 31P NMR spectra of yeast phenylalanine tRNA, E. coli tyrosine, glutamate (2), and formylmethionine tRNA is presented. The major difference between the 31P NMR spectra of the different acceptor tRNAs is in the main cluster region between -0.5 and -1.3 ppm. This confirms an earlier assignment of the main cluster region to the undistorted phosphate diesters in the hairpin loops and helical stems. In addition the 31P NMR spectra for all tRNAs reveal approximately 16 nonhelical diester signals spread over approximately 7 ppm besides the downfield terminal 3'-phosphate monoester. In the presence of 10 mM Mg2+ most scattered and main cluster signals do not shift between 22 and 66 degrees C, thus supporting our earlier hypothesis that 31P chemical shifts are sensitive to phosphate ester torsional and bond angles. At greater than 70 degrees C, all of the signals merge into a single random-coil conformation signal. A number of the scattered peaks are shifted (0.2-1.7 ppm) and broadened between 22 and 66 degrees C in the presence of Mg2+ and spermine as a result of a conformational transition in the anticodon loop. The 31P NMR spectrum of the dimer formed between yeast tRNAPhe and E. coli tRNA 2Glu is reported. This dimer simulates codon-anticodon interaction since the anticodon triplets of the two tRNAs are complementary. Evidence is presented that the anticodon-anticodon interaction alters the anticodon conformation and partially disrupts the tertiary structure of the tRNA.
