  • PubMed Abstract: 

    The faithful charging of amino acids to cognate tRNAs by aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (AARSs) determines the fidelity of protein translation. Isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IleRS) distinguishes tRNA Ile from tRNA Met solely based on the nucleotide at wobble position (N34), and a single substitution at N34 could exchange the aminoacylation specificity between two tRNAs. Here, we report the structural and biochemical mechanism of N34 recognition-based tRNA discrimination by Saccharomyces cerevisiae IleRS (ScIleRS). ScIleRS utilizes a eukaryotic/archaeal-specific arginine as the H-bond donor to recognize the common carbonyl group (H-bond acceptor) of various N34s of tRNA Ile , which induces mutual structural adaptations between ScIleRS and tRNA Ile to achieve a preferable editing state. C34 of unmodified tRNA Ile (CAU) (behaves like tRNA Met ) lacks a relevant H-bond acceptor, which disrupts key H-bonding interactions and structural adaptations and suspends the ScIleRS·tRNA Ile (CAU) complex in an initial non-reactive state. This wobble nucleotide recognition-based structural adaptation provides mechanistic insights into selective tRNA aminoacylation by AARSs.
