Coupling between Sec-tRNASec repositioning, docking of SelB on the SRL and GTPase activation (modified from [13]). (a) Sequential docking of SelB-Sec-tRNASec on the SRL. Movements of the anticodon (shown by distance denoted as RASL) and elbow (Relb distance) of tRNASec and of SelB His61 (RHis61 distance) are indicated. Ribosome elements interacting with tRNASec are shown in mauve, with SelB in pink; sh, 30S shoulder (G357 to U368 of 16S rRNA); S12, protein S12; DC, decoding centre; H43 and H89, helices of 23S rRNA; L11, protein L11. (b) Distance changes from state to state; RASL (N3 of C35 in tRNASec to N1 of G in UGA); Relb (tRNASec elbow, C5′ of Ψ55 in tRNASec to O2′ of A2473 in H89); RHis61 (ND1 of His61 in SelB to O2′ of G2661 in SRL).
