Arg80 and Lys50 are critical for both RNA binding and substrate deacylation. (A) Analytical ultracentrifugation sedimentation velocity analysis of 1 μM WT microhelixPro alone (dashed line), and in the presence of 9.6 μM WT (black), R80A (green) or K50A (blue) ProXp-ala. Inset table shows sw values obtained from integrated c(s) distributions. (B) Single-turnover deacylation assays of 0.1 μM Ala-tRNAPro by 0.75 μM WT (black), R80A (green) and K50A (blue) ProXp-ala. Inset shows an expanded view of the WT and K50A ProXp-ala data. Lines represent single- (R80A) and double- (K50A and WT) exponential fits of the data. Error bars are the standard deviation of three replicates. All deacylation analyses were performed after correcting for nonenzymatic buffer hydrolysis at each timepoint.
