Abstract excerpt
The G.U wobble base-pair in the acceptor helix of Escherichia coli tRNAAlais critical for aminoacylation by the alanine synthetase. Previous work by several groups probed the mechanism of enzyme recognition of G.U by a structure-function analysis of mutant tRNAs using either a cell assay (amber suppressor tRNA) or a test tube assay (phage T7 tRNA substrate and purified enzyme). However, the aminoacylation...
