Analysis of steady-state kinetics of PaTrmD reveals a ternary complex mechanism. The in vitro PaTrmD assay was used to determine initial velocity (vi) as a function of SAM and tRNA concentrations. The data were then subjected to a double-reciprocal plot for vi determined at SAM concentrations ranging over 1–20 µM with different concentrations of tRNALeu(GAG): 0.4 µM (Inline graphic), 0.8 µM (Inline graphic), 1.6 µM (Inline graphic), 3.2 µM (Inline graphic), or 5 µM (Inline graphic). Data points represent mean ± SD for n = 3. The intersecting lines suggest that a ternary complex is required for the enzymatic reaction.
