Abstract excerpt
We describe the use of a gel electrophoretic method for measuring the levels of aminoacylation in vivo of mutant Escherichia coli initiator tRNAs, which are substrates for E. coli glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS) due to an anticodon sequence change. Using this method, we have compared the effects of introducing further mutations in the acceptor stem, at base pairs 1:72, 2:71, and 3:70 and discriminator base 73,...
