pubmed:abstractText
Two Escherichia coli mutants lacking ribosomal protein L1, previously shown to display 40 to 60% reduced capacity for in vitro protein synthesis (Subramanian, A. R., and Dabbs, E. R. (1980) Eur. J. Biochem. 112, 425-430), have been used to study partial reactions of protein biosynthesis. Both the binding of N-acetyl-Phe-tRNA to ribosomes and the 6 to 8-fold stimulation of the elongation factor G (EF-G)-dependent GTPase reaction by mRNA plus tRNA, assayed in the presence of wild type 30 S subunits, were low with L1-deficient 50 S subunits. Addition of pure protein L1 to the assay restored both reactions to 100% of the control. By contrast, the basic EF-G GTPase reaction in the absence of mRNA and tRNA was not at all affected (mRNA alone had no effect). None of the following partial reactions were more than moderately modified by the lack of protein L1: binding to ribosomes of EF-G.GDP plus fusidic acid; the translocation reaction catalyzed by EF-G plus GTP; poly(U)-dependent binding to ribosomes of Phe-tRNAPhe (whether dependent on elongation factor Tu plus GTP or not); and the EF-Tu-dependent GTPase activity. It is concluded that protein L1 is involved in the interaction between ribosomes and peptidyl-tRNA (or tRNA) in the peptidyl site and consequently in the ribosomal GTPase activity depending on the simultaneous action of tRNA and EF-G.
