Equilibrium binding affinity of yeast tRNA(Phe) for Escherichia coli poly(U)-programmed 70S ribosomal P-site was compared with corresponding affinities of several tRNA(Phe) 3'- and 5'-end-truncated derivatives, all containing the anticodon arm. Our findings strongly suggest that besides three 3'-terminal-CCA nucleotides (C74, C75 and A76), only the tRNA(Phe) anticodon arm (N28-N42) contains ribosomal P-site contact centers and that there are no such centers in the intermediate regions N1-N27 and N43-N73.
将酵母苯丙氨酸转运核糖核酸(tRNA(Phe))与大肠杆菌聚尿嘧啶(poly(U))编程的70S核糖体P位点的平衡结合亲和力,与几种均含有反密码子臂的3'端和5'端截短的tRNA(Phe)衍生物的相应亲和力进行了比较。我们的研究结果有力地表明,除了三个3'端的CCA核苷酸(C74、C75和A76)外,只有tRNA(Phe)的反密码子臂(N28 - N42)含有核糖体P位点接触中心,而在中间区域N1 - N27和N43 - N73中不存在这样的中心。
