Abstract:
Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ng) encounters different microenvironments during its life-cycle. Some of these niches have different concentrations of oxygen, which influences the rate of Ng growth; as well as iron, an element essential for Ng survival. Differential expression of several proteins allows the bacteria to adapt to the diverse conditions it comes encounters. One protein affected by environmental changes during Ng growth is Gcp, a tRNA-modification enzyme essential for protein synthesis. To study the regulation of expression of Gcp, we first analyzed the sequence of its ORF, gcp. Orthologs

Abstract:
Stable RNAs undergo a wide variety of post-transcriptional modifications, that add to the functional repertoire of these molecules. Some of these modifications are catalyzed by stand-alone protein enzymes, while some others are catalyzed by RNA-protein complexes. tRNAs from all domains of life contain many such modifications, that increase their structural stability and refine their decoding properties. Certain regions of tRNAs are more frequently modified than others. Two such regions are the anticodon loop, and the TψC stem. In the halophilic euryarchaeon Haloferax volcanii, tRNATrp and tRNA

Abstract:
Transfer ribonucleic acids (tRNAs) are extensively modified, especially their anticodon loops. Modifications at position 34 (wobble base) and 37 in these loops affect the tRNAs’ decoding ability, while modifications outside the anticodon loops, e.g. m1A58 of tRNAMeti, may be crucial for tRNA structure or stability. A number of gene products are required for the formation of modified nucleosides, e.g. at least 26 proteins (including Elongator complex) are needed for U34 modifications in yeast, and methyl transferase activity of the Trm6/61p complex is needed to form m1A58.

[EN] Post-transcriptional modification of the wobble uridine (U34) of a tRNA set is an evolutionary conserved process, produced by homologous proteins from the MnmA/MTU1, MnmE/GTPBP3 and MnmG/MTO1 families. Mutations in the human genes MTU1 and GTPBP3 or MTO1 produce acute infantile liver failure, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and lactic acidosis, respectively, which usually cause lethality in the first months of life. It is assumed that the primary cause of these diseases is the lack of the modifications introduced by the MTU1 protein in position 2 (tiol) and GTPBP3 and MTO1 proteins (tauri

Modified bases in RNA molecules are common, with over one-hundred individual modifications reported to date. In transfer RNA (tRNA), these modifications help hold the molecule in its proper conformation, allow the aminoacyl-synthetases to attach the amino acid to the correct tRNA for transfer to the ribosome, and in the correct matching of the codon-anticodon pair at the ribosome. Two positions on the tRNA molecule are significant in this last action; positions 34 and 37. Position 34 is the first base in the anticodon, and pairs with the last base in the codon during translation; modifications

Besides 2'-O-methylation of ribose sugars, methylation of pseudouridine (Ø) at position 54 of tRNA, producing m1Ø, is a hallmark of many archaeal species but the specific methylase involved in the formation of this modification had yet to be characterized.

Abstract:
N6-threonylcarbamoyl adenosine (t6A) is a universally conserved tRNA modification found at position 37 of tRNAs which decode ANN codons. Structural studies have implicated its presence as a requirement for the disruption of a U-turn motif in certain tRNAs, leading to the formation of properly structured anticodon stem loop. This structure is proposed to enhance the base pairing between U36 of tRNA and A1 of the codon which aids in translational frame maintenance. Despite significant effort since its discovery in the 1970s the enzymes involved in its biosynthesis remained undiscovered. Bioinfor
