Abstract excerpt
We have studied the interaction of 3'-end variants of a (pre-)tRNAGly with ribonuclease P (RNase P) RNAs from Escherichia coli and Thermus thermophilus. To dissect the thermodynamics of tRNA binding from the overall catalytic reaction, specific binding of mature tRNAGly variants to RNase P RNAs was studied by gel retardation. A newly developed assay, based on the reduction of Pb(2+)-hydrolysis at the CCA end due...
