2.7.7.B5 C207S using a complementation assay it is shown that mutant is required for 4-thiouridine synthesis but not for thiazole synthesis 725262 2.7.7.B5 C344S using a complementation assay it is shown that mutant is required for 4-thiouridine synthesis but not for thiazole synthesis 725262 2.7.7.B5 C456S using a complementation assay it is shown that mutant is required for 4-thiouridine synthesis and for thiazole synthesis 725262 2.7.7.B5 D189A mutation eliminates in vivo function of the enzyme 691789 2.7.7.B5 D189A using a complementation assay it is shown that mutant is required for 4-thiouridine synthesis but not for thiazole synthesis 725262 2.7.7.B5 K321M mutation eliminates in vivo function of the enzyme 691789 2.7.7.B5 K321M using a complementation assay it is shown that mutant is required for 4-thiouridine synthesis but not for thiazole synthesis 725262 2.7.7.B5 additional information construction of two truncated forms of ThiI containing the N-terminal domain including NFLD and THUMP, and the C-terminal domain including the PP-loop and RLD domains, respectively. The N-domain can bind with both tRNAPhe and TPHE39A and recognizes the acceptor-stem region, whereas the C-domain cannot. The C-domain also affects RNA binding by its enthalpically favorable, but entropically unfavorable, contribution. The C-domain induces a conformation change in tRNAPhe 710548
