Conformational requirements of tobacco mosaic virus RNA for aminoacylation and adenylation.

Abstract

The RNA conformational requirements for both aminoacylation and adenylation emerging from our studies performed using the valine- and the tyrosine-accepting plant viral RNAs are now strongly supported by the histidine-accepting tobacco mosaic virus RNA: an 'L'-shaped conformation is recognized by the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase whereas only the aminoacyl RNA domain (equivalent in tRNAs to the continuous helix formed by the acceptor stem and the T stem and loop) interacts with the tRNA nucleotidyltransferase.
