Molecular basis of dihydrouridine formation on tRNA.

Dihydrouridine (D) is a highly conserved modified base found in tRNAs from all domains of life. Dihydrouridine synthase (Dus) catalyzes the D formation of tRNA through reduction of uracil base with flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as a cofactor. Here, we report the crystal structures of Thermus thermophilus Dus (TthDus), which is responsible for D formation at positions 20 and 20a, in complex with tRNA and with a short fragment of tRNA (D-loop). Dus interacts extensively with the D-arm and recognizes the elbow region composed of the kissing loop interaction between T- and D-loops in tRNA, pulling U20 into the catalytic center for reduction. Although distortion of the D-loop structure was observed upon binding of Dus to tRNA, the canonical D-loop/T-loop interaction was maintained. These results were consistent with the observation that Dus preferentially recognizes modified rather than unmodified tRNAs, indicating that Dus introduces D20 by monitoring the complete L-shaped structure of tRNAs. In the active site, U20 is stacked on the isoalloxazine ring of FMN, and C5 of the U20 uracil ring is covalently cross linked to the thiol group of Cys93, implying a catalytic mechanism of D20 formation. In addition, the involvement of a cofactor molecule in uracil ring recognition was proposed. Based on a series of mutation analyses, we propose a molecular basis of tRNA recognition and D formation catalyzed by Dus. << Less

5,6-Dihydrouridine (D) is a modified base found abundantly in the D-loops of tRNA from Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. D is thought to be formed post-transcriptionally by the reduction of uridines in tRNA transcripts. Despite its abundance, no enzymes that catalyze D-formation have been identified. Using comparative genomics and computational methods we have identified members of the cluster of orthologous genes, COG0042, as putative dihydrouridine synthase encoding genes. Escherichia coli contains three COG0042 family members (yjbN, yhdG, and yohI). Strains were created where one, two, or all three of the COG0042 genes were deleted. Purified tRNA samples were investigated from the three single and the three double knockout strains, as well as from the triple deletion strain. The results showed that the COG0042 gene family is responsible for tRNA-dihydrouridine synthase activity in E. coli. They also suggest that the COG0042-encoded family members act site-specifically on the tRNA D-loop and contain non-redundant catalytic functions in vivo. << Less
