The tRNA recognition mechanism of folate/FAD-dependent tRNA methyltransferase (TrmFO).
Yamagami R., Yamashita K., Nishimasu H., Tomikawa C., Ochi A., Iwashita C., Hirata A., Ishitani R., Nureki O., Hori H.
The conserved U54 in tRNA is often modified to 5-methyluridine (m(5)U) and forms a reverse Hoogsteen base pair with A58 that stabilizes the L-shaped tRNA structure. In Gram-positive and some Gram-negative eubacteria, m(5)U54 is produced by folate/FAD-dependent tRNA (m(5)U54) methyltransferase (Trm ... >> More
The conserved U54 in tRNA is often modified to 5-methyluridine (m(5)U) and forms a reverse Hoogsteen base pair with A58 that stabilizes the L-shaped tRNA structure. In Gram-positive and some Gram-negative eubacteria, m(5)U54 is produced by folate/FAD-dependent tRNA (m(5)U54) methyltransferase (TrmFO). TrmFO utilizes N(5),N(10)-methylenetetrahydrofolate (CH(2)THF) as a methyl donor. We previously reported an in vitro TrmFO assay system, in which unstable [(14)C]CH(2)THF was supplied from [(14)C]serine and tetrahydrofolate by serine hydroxymethyltransferase. In the current study, we have improved the TrmFO assay system by optimization of enzyme and substrate concentrations and introduction of a filter assay system. Using this assay, we have focused on the tRNA recognition mechanism of TrmFO. 42 tRNA mutant variants were prepared, and experiments with truncated tRNA and microhelix RNAs revealed that the minimum requirement of TrmFO exists in the T-arm structure. The positive determinants for TrmFO were found to be the U54U55C56 sequence and G53-C61 base pair. The gel mobility shift assay and fluorescence quenching showed that the affinity of TrmFO for tRNA in the initial binding process is weak. The inhibition experiments showed that the methylated tRNA is released before the structural change process. Furthermore, we found that A38 prevents incorrect methylation of U32 in the anticodon loop. Moreover, the m(1)A58 modification clearly accelerates the TrmFO reaction, suggesting a synergistic effect of the m(5)U54, m(1)A58, and s(2)U54 modifications on m(5)s(2)U54 formation in Thermus thermophilus cells. The docking model of TrmFO and the T-arm showed that the G53-C61 base pair is not able to directly contact the enzyme. << Less

Atomic structure of a folate/FAD-dependent tRNA T54 methyltransferase.

tRNAs from all 3 phylogenetic domains have a 5-methyluridine at position 54 (T54) in the T-loop. The methyl group is transferred from S-adenosylmethionine by TrmA methyltransferase in most Gram-negative bacteria and some archaea and eukaryotes, whereas it is transferred from 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (MTHF) by TrmFO, a folate/FAD-dependent methyltransferase, in most Gram-positive bacteria and some Gram-negative bacteria. However, the catalytic mechanism remains unclear, because the crystal structure of TrmFO has not been solved. Here, we report the crystal structures of Thermus thermophilus TrmFO in its free form, tetrahydrofolate (THF)-bound form, and glutathione-bound form at 2.1-, 1.6-, and 1.05-A resolutions, respectively. TrmFO consists of an FAD-binding domain and an insertion domain, which both share structural similarity with those of GidA, an enzyme involved in the 5-carboxymethylaminomethylation of U34 of some tRNAs. However, the overall structures of TrmFO and GidA are basically different because of their distinct domain orientations, which are consistent with their respective functional specificities. In the THF complex, the pteridin ring of THF is sandwiched between the flavin ring of FAD and the imidazole ring of a His residue. This structure provides a snapshot of the folate/FAD-dependent methyl transfer, suggesting that the transferring methylene group of MTHF is located close to the redox-active N5 atom of FAD. Furthermore, we established an in vitro system to measure the methylation activity. Our TrmFO-tRNA docking model, in combination with mutational analyses, suggests a catalytic mechanism, in which the methylene of MTHF is directly transferred onto U54, and then the exocyclic methylene of U54 is reduced by FADH(2). << Less

Methylenetetrahydrofolate-dependent biosynthesis of ribothymidine in transfer RNA of Streptococcus faecalis. Evidence for reduction of the 1-carbon unit by FADH2.

The methyl carbon of ribothymidine in Loop IV of the tRNA of Streptococcus faecalis, Bacillus subtilis, and some other microorganisms is derived directly from 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, not S-adenosylmethionine. The pure enzyme from S. faecalis also requires FADH2. We have obtained evidence that tetrahydrofolate is a product of the reaction and demonstrated that label from [5-3H]5-deazaFMNH2 is incorporated into the methyl moiety of ribothymidine. These data indicate that the enzyme uses methylenetetrahydrofolate solely as a 1-carbon donor and employs FADH2 as a reducing agent in vitro according to the following reaction: tRNA(U psi C) + CH2 = THF + FADH2 leads to tRNA(T psi C) + THF + FAD. << Less

Major identity determinants for enzymatic formation of ribothymidine and pseudouridine in the T psi-loop of yeast tRNAs.
Becker H.F., Motorin Y., Sissler M., Florentz C., Grosjean H.
Almost all transfer RNA molecules sequenced so far contain two universal modified nucleosides at positions 54 and 55, respectively: ribothymidine (T54) and pseudouridine (psi 55).

Almost all transfer RNA molecules sequenced so far contain two universal modified nucleosides at positions 54 and 55, respectively: ribothymidine (T54) and pseudouridine (psi 55). To identify the tRNA elements recognized by tRNA:m5uridine-54 methyltransferase and tRNA:pseudouridine-55 synthase from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a set of 43 yeast tRNA(Asp) mutants were used. Some variants contained point mutations, while the others included progressive reductions in size down to a tRNA minisubstrate consisting of the T psi-loop with only one G.C base-pair as stem (9-mer). All substrates (full-sized tRNA(Asp) and various minihelices) were produced in vitro by T7 transcription and tested using yeast extract (S100) as a source of enzymatic activities and S-adenosyl-L-methionine as a methyl donor. The results indicate that the minimal substrate for enzymatic formation of psi 55 is a stem/loop structure with only four G.C base-pairs in the stem, while a longer stem is required for efficient T54 formation. None of the conserved nucleotides (G53, C56, A58 and C61) and U54 for psi 55 or U55 for T54 formation can be replaced by any of the other three canonical nucleotides. Yeast tRNA:m5uridine-54 methyltransferase additionally requires the presence of a pyrimidine-60 in the loop. Interestingly, in a tRNA(Asp) variant in which the T psi-loop was permuted with the anticodon-loop, the new U32 and U33 residues derived from the T psi-loop were quantitatively converted to T32 and psi 33, respectively. Structural mapping of this variant with ethylnitrosourea confirmed that the intrinsic characteristic structure of the T psi-loop was conserved upon permutation and that the displaced anticodon-loop did not acquire a T psi-loop structure. These results demonstrate that a local conformation rather than the exact location of the U-U sequence within the tRNA architecture is the important identity determinant for recognition by yeast tRNA:m5uridine-54 methyltransferase and tRNA:pseudouridine-55 synthase. << Less
