Haloarcula marismortui

The origin of the idea that a ribosome might be a ribozyme is derived from the experiment in which peptidyl transferase activity was observed even after digestion of protein components of the ribosome [15]. This was surprising because the most important biological function involved in the synthesis of proteins is catalyzed by RNA. Recently, a large ribosomal subunit from Haloarcula marismortui was determined at a resolution of 2.4 A [16, 155]. Importantly, because of the absence of proteins at the active site, it was concluded that the key peptidyl transferase reaction is accomplished by the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) itself, not by proteins. How does it work ... [Pg.244]

More recently, however, this mechanism was questioned by several researchers [156-158]. In the case of E. coli 50S subunits, the pH-dependent modification of A2451 by DMS (A2486 in Haloarcula marismortui) occurred only in its inactive conformation [157]. Under the conditions wherein the ribosomes were fully active, in contrast, the modification of A2451 by DMS could not be recognized. These results indicate that A2451 becomes shielded from chemical modification by a conformational change upon activation. Thus, it was concluded that the conditional modification of A2451 by DMS... [Pg.245]

This small RNA is found in the central protuberance of the 50S ribosomal subunit. See Fig 29-4A. Photocrosslinking using thiouridine-containing 5S RNA suggested a close proximity of U89 (marked by arrow) with nucleotide 2477 of the 23S RNA in the loop end of helix 89 (Fig. 29-4).93 (B) Stereoscopic view of the 5S RNA as observed in ribosomes of Haloarcula marismortui.

Structures for three 16-membered macrolides and one 15-memberered macrolide bound to the archaeal ribosome of Haloarcula marismortui (Hm) are available [8], as are structures for four 14-membered macrolides bound to the bacterial ribosome of Ddnococcus radiodurans Dr) [4]. Interestingly, it appears that the 14-mem-bered macrolides do not bind to the bacterial ribosomes in the same way that the... [Pg.107]

These are difficult enzymes to work with and only recently have crystal structures become available for two catalase-peroxidases Haloarcula marismortui (HMCP) and Burkholderia pseudomallei (BpKatG). A typical subunit is approximately 80 kDa in molecular mass, with a single heme b prosthetic group. The primary structure of each subunit can be divided into two distinct domains, N terminal and C terminal. The N-terminal domain contains the heme and active site, while the C-terminal domain does not contain a heme binding motif and its function remains unclear. The clear sequence similarity between the two domains suggests gene duplication and fusion. Curiously, despite many years of study, the actual in vivo peroxidatic substrate of the catalase-peroxidases has not been identified. [Pg.1940]

Haloarcula marismortui A5], Haloferax meditermnei, and another extreme halophile, strain Baja-12, chemotaxonomically identified as a member of the genus Haloferax [146]. The enzyme activities from these organisms are stable as well as most active in the absence of salt and the enzymatic properties are indistinguishable from those of H. denitrificans[HA]. [Pg.318]

Since all the r-proteins from both the large (L) and the small (S) ribosomal subunits of E. coli are sequenced and well characterized [106], homologous proteins from other organisms are named according to their E. coli counterpart. For example, proteins homologous to L23 of E. coli (Eco L23) will be called Sac L23 in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, Hma L23 in Haloarcula marismortui and See L23 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In Table 2 (below), we have used this nomenclature to identify any r-protein that, from its sequence similarity, was equivalent to a known E. coli r-protein. Proteins which have no counterparts in E. coli (or where the sequence similarity is too weak to identify the relationship) are listed by the numbers described in the original publications and a trivial name. These numbers usually refer to the mobility of the protein in a 2D polyacrylamide gel. For example, HS15 is a protein from the small ribosomal subunit of H. marismortui which has no counterpart in E. co/j [107]. [Pg.446]

In this chapter, the molecular-biological mode of action of macrolide antibiotics and the biochemical and genetic mechanisms of resistance to MLS antibiotics are reviewed. Based on a recent X-ray crystallographic study on a 50S ribosomal subunit from Haloarcula marismortui and the finding of intracellular macrolide accumulation, the mode of action from the viewpoint of a new hypothetical concept, deposition binding, and mechanisms of drug resistance in clinically isolated bacteria are discussed. In addition, recent major developments in macrolide antibiotics are briefly described. [Pg.454]
