Cloned (Comment) Organism
expression of His-tagged wild-type and mutant enzymes in strain BL21(DE3), subcloning in strain DH5alpha Escherichia coli

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
A293D site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant activity is similar to the wild-type enzyme Escherichia coli
A293E site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant activity is similar to the wild-type enzyme Escherichia coli
A293K site-directed mutagenesis, the post-transfer editing activity of the isolated CP1-domain is enhanced compared to the wild-type enzyme's domain Escherichia coli
A293R site-directed mutagenesis, the post-transfer editing activity of the isolated CP1-domain is enhanced compared to the wild-type enzyme's domain Escherichia coli
D345A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation in the isolated CP1-domain abolishes hydrolytic post-transfer editing activity Escherichia coli
additional information isolated LeuRS CP1 domain requires idiosyncratic adaptations to confer editing activity independent of the full-length enzyme, the beta-strands, which link the CP1 domain to the aminoacylation core of LeuRS, are required for editing of mischarged tRNALeu, hydrolytic activity is also enhanced by inclusion of short flexible peptides, called hinges, at the end of both LeuRS beta-strands, overview Escherichia coli
T247V site-directed mutagenesis, hydrolysis of Ile-tRNALeu is completely abolished Escherichia coli
T247V/T248V site-directed mutagenesis, the double mutation abolishes post-transfer editing activity Escherichia coli
T248V site-directed mutagenesis, hydrolysis of Ile-tRNALeu is completely abolished Escherichia coli
T252A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation in the full-length LeuRS uncouples specificity and hydrolyzes correctly charged LeutRNALeu Escherichia coli
T252Y site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation occupies the amino acid binding pocket and blocks the binding of substrate to abolish editing activity Escherichia coli
