3.6.5.3 protein-synthesizing GTPaseIUBMB Comments
This enzyme comprises a family of proteins involved in prokaryotic as well as eukaryotic protein synthesis. In the initiation factor complex, it is IF-2b (98 kDa) that binds GTP and subsequently hydrolyses it in prokaryotes. In eukaryotes, it is eIF-2 (150 kDa) that binds GTP. In the elongation phase, the GTP-hydrolysing proteins are the EF-Tu polypeptide of the prokaryotic transfer factor (43 kDa), the eukaryotic elongation factor EF-1alpha (53 kDa), the prokaryotic EF-G (77 kDa), the eukaryotic EF-2 (70-110 kDa) and the signal recognition particle that play a role in endoplasmic reticulum protein synthesis (325 kDa). EF-Tu and EF-1alpha catalyse binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the ribosomal A-site, while EF-G and EF-2 catalyse the translocation of peptidyl-tRNA from the A-site to the P-site. GTPase activity is also involved in polypeptide release from the ribosome with the aid of the pRFs and eRFs.

two models of the reaction mechanism using the crystal structure: I. Glu81 becomes protonated upon GTP binding, with preference to bind GDP apparently contradicting its assignment as ON, or II. Glu81 protonation/deprotonation defines the ON/OFF states. Protonated Glu81, is ON, whereas X-ray(GTP):GDP is OFF. The model postulates that distant conformational changes such as domain IV rotation are uncoupled from GTP/GDP exchange and do not affect the relative GTP/GDP binding affinities. Glu81-GTP interaction helps to hold switch 2 in place, if Glu81 is deprotonated, it and nearby residues move away from their crystal positions

EF-Tu is in its active conformation, when the switch I loop is ordered, and the catalytic histidine is coordinating the nucleophilic water in position for inline attack on the gamma-phosphate of GTP.

Universal mechanism for GTPase activation and hydrolysis in translational GTPases on the ribosome. Premature GTP hydrolysis in EF-Tu is prevented by a hydrophobic gate consisting of residues Val20 of the P loop and Ile60 of switch I, which restricts access of His84 to the catalytic water

Thiostrepton
inhibits the stimulation of the enzyme's GTPase activity by the 70S ribosome
vanadate
-
inhibition of ribosome disassembly, no influence on GTP hydrolysis
additional information
-
viomycin and fusidic acid do not prevent GTP hydrolysis, but these antibiotics trap EF-G on the ribosome before or after ribosomal translocation, respectively
-
additional information
-
in free enzyme EF-G, crucial sensors of switch I and II regions are disordered and become ordered in the complex with a nonhydrolyzable GTP analogue, GDPCP, on the ribosome. This causes a reorientation of EF-G such that the tip of domain IV moves and the CHI state ofthe ribosome is stabilized

L7/12
-
functional compatibility between elongation factor G and the L7/12 protein in the ribosome governs its translational specificity; the C-terminal domian of L7/12 is responsible for EF-Tu function.

pulvomycin
-
increasing pulvomycin concentration increased the rate of the intrinsic GTPase catalysed by elongation factor 1alpha, reaching its maximum stimulation effect at 30 mM. Pulvomycin exerts its stimulatory function at all the tested temperatures (45-75°C).
kirromycin
-
enhances activity of mutant enzyme G13A (maximal stimulation at 0.04 mM), does not stimulate intrinsic GTPase of SsEF-1alpha triggered by 3.6 M NaCl
NaCl
-
intrinsic GTPase activity of elongation factor 1alpha is triggered in vitro by NaCl at molar concentrations. The sodium ion is responsible for the induction of the GTPase activity, whereas the anion modulates the enzymatic activity through destabilization of particular regions of the protein; intrinsic GTPase activity that is triggered in vitro by NaCl at molar concentrations
ribosome
-
stimulates GTPase activity of elongation factor Tu. The factor binding site is loacetd on the 50S ribosomal subunit and comprises proteins L7/12, L10, L11, the l11-binding region of 23 rRNA, and the sarcin-ricin loop of 23S rRNA. L7/12 stimulates the GTPase activity of elongation factor G by inducing the catalytically active conformation of the G domain; stimulates GTPase activity of elongation factor Tu.

Thermus thermophilus HB8 / ATCC 27634 / DSM 579
ecotype Landsberg erecta. Snowy cotyledon 1 mutant contains a mutation in a gene encoding the chloroplast elongation factor G, leading to an amino acid exchange within the predicted 70S ribosome-binding domain. The mutation results in a delay in the onset of germination. At this early developmental stage embryos still contain undifferntiated proplastids, whose proper function seems necessary for seed germination. In light-gropwn sco1 seedlings the greening of cotyledons is severely impaired, whereas the following true leaves develop normally as in wild-type plants
