All sequenced histidine tRNAs have one additional nucleotide at the 5' end when compared to other tRNA species. Sequence analysis of histidine tRNA genes from Drosophila melanogaster and Schizosaccharomyces pombe showed that the terminal guanylate residue of the mature tRNAs is not encoded by the genes. Analysis of the products from in vitro transcription of these genes in extracts from Drosophila Kc cells demonstrated that the 5'-terminal nucleotide present in the mature tRNA is added post-transcriptionally. The addition reaction requires ATP. A portion of the mature tRNAs are then modified at the 5'-terminal pG. Analysis of the RNA species formed during the in vitro maturation of the Drosophila histidine tRNA primary transcript uncovered the following maturation scheme: (i) the primary transcript is processed by RNase P at the 5' end to form an intermediate precursor; (ii) the 3'-flanking sequence is endonucleolytically removed, and a guanylate moiety is added to the 5' end to form mature-sized histidine tRNA; and (iii) a fraction of the 5'-terminal guanylate residues then undergoes modification. In contrast to the capping of eukaryotic mRNA, the guanylate addition to histidine tRNA results in the formation of a (3'-5')-phosphodiester bond. There are no precedents for the post-transcriptional addition of nucleotides (in phosphodiester linkage) to the 5' end of RNA precursors.
