Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
G674D site-directed mutagenesis, a point mutation in the C-terminal domain, the mutation produces a monomeric variant with a fivefold reduced aminoacylation activity compared to the wild-type enzyme Escherichia coli
additional information a truncated enzyme comparising the N-terminal 700 amino acids forms a monomeric protein possessing similar aminoacylation activity like the wild-type enzyme, and construction of N461 truncated enzyme. Aminoacylation activity assay after refolding from denatured state reveals that the monomeric mutants are unable to regain their activity, whereas the dimeric full-length alaRS gets back similar activity as the native enzyme Escherichia coli

More alanyl-tRNA synthetase exists as a dimer in its native form and the C-terminal coiled-coil part plays an important role in the dimerization process. Dimerization is one of the key regulatory factors that is important in the proper folding and stability of Escherichia coli alaRS Escherichia coli
