AcP and CobB regulate acetylation of EcLeuRS.
A, AcP but not YfiQ acetylates EcLeuRS in vitro. B, CobB removal of the acetyl moiety of EcLeuRSAc. C, CobB deacetylation of EcLeuRS-K619Ac and EcLeuRS-K809Ac. In the presence of NAM or the absence of NAD+, CobB is inactivated. D, incubation with CobB recovers the aminoacylation activity of EcLeuRS-K619Ac (left panel) and EcLeuRS-K809Ac (right panel). All experiments were conducted at least twice. When quantifying of the relative amount of AcK signal/His signal, the sample without NAD+ and NAM was defined as 100%.
