Enzymatic mechanism of tRNA (m5U54)methyltransferase.
Kealey J.T., Gu X., Santi D.V.
tRNA (m5U54)methyltransferase (RUMT) catalyzes the methylation of uridine 54 of transfer RNA by S-adenosyl-L-methionine.

tRNA (m5U54)methyltransferase (RUMT) catalyzes the methylation of uridine 54 of transfer RNA by S-adenosyl-L-methionine. In this report, we present the enzymatic mechanism of RUMT, including the stereochemical course of the methylation reaction, and discuss RUMT-tRNA recognition. As part of its enzymatic mechanism, we postulate that RUMT catalyzes the disruption of RNA-RNA contacts. We also show that many nucleotide substitutions can be made in the T-loop of tRNA without affecting RUMT binding, indicating that the recognition of the T-loop by RUMT is not stringent. << Less

The tRNA-modifying enzyme, S-adenosylmethionine: tRNA (uridine-5)-methyltransferase, has been purified essentially to homogeneity from an Escherichia coli strain containing an elevated level of this enzyme. A rapid, efficient method has been developed for the purification, consisting of polyethyleneimine precipitation to remove nucleic acids, followed by phosphocellulose and Blue Sepharose affinity chromatography. The enzyme is a single polypeptide chain of molecular weight 42,000. It has a pH optimum of 8.4, a Km of 12.5 microM for S-adenyosyl-L-methionine, and a Km of 1.1 microM for wheat germ tRNAGly1. The ability of the enzyme to methylate a variety of tRNA substrates including prokaryotic, eukaryotic, mitochondrial, and chloroplastic tRNAs has been characterized. << Less
