GTP-hydrolyzing activity of Era. (A) GTPase activity of Era in the absence of RNA, in the presence of the 1531AUCACCUCCUUA1542 sequence, in the presence of the sequence with 1531–1534 mutations, and in the presence of the sequence with 1535–1539 mutations. (B) GTPase activity of Era in the presence of the 1531AUCACCUCCUUA1542 sequence with a single mutation at each position from 1531 to 1539 or the deletion of nucleotide 1531. (C) GTPase activity of Era in the presence of the 1530GAUCACCUCCUUA1542 sequence, in the presence of the sequence with a single or double mutation at 1530 and/or 1531, or with the deletion of nucleotide 1530 and a single mutation at 1531. (D) GTPase activity of Era in the presence of longer RNA consisted of h45 (nucleotides 1506–1529) and the 1530GAUCACCUCCUUA1542 sequence, either native (RNA301) or with a G1530A mutation. Data were taken from References [12, 13] and presented graphically here.
