microbatch technique under oil at 4°C. Determination of the structure of RsmG (249 amino acids) in three different crystal forms: the enzyme in complex with the cofactor S-adensosyl-L-methionine, the enzyme in complex with S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine, the enzyme in complex with adenosine monophosphate and S-adenosyl-L-methionine. RsmG X-ray crystal structures at up to 1.5 A resolution. Cofactor-bound crystal structures of RsmG reveals a positively charged surface area remote from the active site that binds an adenosine monophosphate molecule | Thermus thermophilus |

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + guanine527 in 16S rRNA | Thermus thermophilus | methylations concentrated in the decoding site of the 30S ribosomal subunit may act to fine tune codon recognition in a manner similar to tRNA modifications. The intact 30S subunit is very unlikely to be the natural substrate for Thermus thermophilus RsmG in vivo. This interpretation is consistent with the position of G527 in the intact 30S subunit, where it is buried and would be inaccessible for methylation without substantial unfolding of the local subunit structure. Deproteinized 16S rRNA is the most active substrate in vitro. In vivo, several ribosomal proteins probably begin binding to the nascent 16S rRNA transcript prior to its completion, making an early assembly intermediate a plausible candidate for the biological substrate of RsmG | S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N7-methylguanine527 in 16S rRNA | - |

malfunction | construction of an rsmG null allele by deleting the rsmG coding sequence and replacing it with htk, encoding a heat-stable kanamycin adenyltransferase. This null allele retains the very N- and C-terminal rsmG coding sequences, in-frame with the htk coding sequence, in order to maintain the rsmGparA overlap and minimize any effects on parA expression. This allele is designated DrsmGThtk2 and the mutant containing this allele is designated HG 917. Thermus thermophilus rsmG mutants are weakly resistant to the aminoglycoside antibiotic streptomycin. Growth competition experiments indicate a physiological cost to loss of RsmG activity, consistent with the conservation of the modification site in the decoding region of the ribosome | Thermus thermophilus |
