Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
ATP + L-leucine + tRNALeu = AMP + diphosphate + L-leucyl-tRNALeu recognition of the tRNALeu requires the discriminator base A73 and the long variable arm of appropriate stem length, especially the Haloferax volcanii-specific loop sequence A47CG47D and U47H at the base of the helix Haloferax volcanii

ATP + L-leucine + tRNALeuA73 class II tRNALeu, recognition requires the discriminator base A73 and the long variable arm of appropriate stem length, especially the specific loop sequence A47CG47D and U47H at the base of the helix Haloferax volcanii AMP + diphosphate + L-leucyl-tRNALeuA73

ATP + L-leucine + tRNALeuU73 class II tRNALeu isoacceptor, 17fold lower activity compared to tRNALeuA73 Haloferax volcanii AMP + diphosphate + L-leucyl-tRNALeuU73
-
?
ATP + L-leucine + tRNASer mutant transplantation of both the discriminator base and the variable arm of tRNALeu are not sufficient to introduce leucylation activity to tRNASer, but additional insertion of additional a nucleotide into the D-loop, which is not involved in the direct interaction with the enzyme, converts tRNASer to an efficient leucine acceptor Haloferax volcanii AMP + diphosphate + L-leucyl-tRNASer mutant

?
additional information substrate specificty with diverse class II tRNALeu isoacceptors and mutants, overview, no activity with tRNALeuG73 and C73, no activity with tRNALeu, tRNASer and tRNATyr from Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, differences in the tertiary structure of tRNALeu and tRNASer play a key role for inactivity and therefore elimination of native tRNASer as leucine acceptor Haloferax volcanii ?
