Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information rrmJ-deficient strain exhibit growth and translational defects compared to the wild-type strain. Growth rates of the rrmJ mutant are decreased at both low and high temperatures. Protein synthesis activity is reduced up to 65% when S30 rrmJ mutant extracts are tested in a coupled in vitro transcription/translation assay. In vitro methylation of these extracts by RrmJ partially restores protein synthesis activity Escherichia coli

physiological function the RrmJ-catalyzed methylation of Um2552 in 23S RNA strengthens ribosomal subunit interactions, increases protein synthesis activity, and improves cell growth rates even at non-heat shock temperatures Escherichia coli
