摘要

To investigate systematically the MA sequences necessary for aminoacylation by Escherichia coli leucyl-trRNA synthetase, RNAs with leucylation activity were isolated by in vitro selection from a library of tRNA(Leu) variants possessing randomized sequences in the D-loop, the variable arm, and the T-loop. After two rounds of selection, most of the selected variants showed the following features: (1) the tertiary interaction between nucleotides at positions 15 and 48 was A15-U48; (2) the continuous G18G19 sequence, which is invariant in canonical tRNAs, appeared at the fixed position in the D-loop; and (3) the nucleotide at position 20a in the D-loop was A. These selected nucleotides and their positions, concentrating on the hinge region of tRNA, were identical to those of native tRNA(Leu). In contrast, although the long variable arm is the most characteristic of the tRNA(Leu) structure, the primary and secondary structures were not correlated with the leucylation activity. These findings indicate that A15-U48, A20a, and G18G19 located at specific positions are involved in the tertiary folding of leucine-accepting tRNA molecules. With increases in the selection cycle, the D-loop sequence and the secondary structure of the variable arm became similar to those of tRNA(Leu), suggesting that tRNA(Leu) represents an optimized RNA sequence for leucylation.
