Escherichia coli glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS) (EC 6.1.1.18) is a monomeric polypeptide of 553 amino acids. Its amino acid sequence and its gene (glnS) sequence are known. A structural gene mutation, glnS7, codes for a mischarging GlnRS, which acylates some noncognate tRNA species (e.g., su+3 tRNATyr) with glutamine. The mutant enzyme was shown to catalyze in vitro the acylation of glutamine to su+3 tRNATyr, but not to wild-type tRNATyr. The mutation responsible produces an amino acid change in the amino-terminal half of the enzyme. Unexpectedly, overproduction of wild-type GlnRS also leads to in vivo mischarging of su+3 tRNATyr. In vitro and in vivo studies have not revealed evidence for an attenuation or autogenous regulation mechanism for GlnRS, but have implicated transcriptional and translational control in the expression of this enzyme.
