Located near the base of the L1 stalk, it is probably also mobile. Required for association of the 30S and 50S subunits to form the 70S ribosome, for tRNA binding and peptide bond formation. It has been suggested to have peptidyltransferase activity; this is highly controversial.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01320_B] In the E.coli 70S ribosome in the initiation state it has been modeled to make several contacts with the 16S rRNA (forming bridge B7b, PubMed:12809609); these contacts are broken in the model with bound EF-G.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01320_B] Publication Abstract from PubMed As genetic code expansion advances beyond L-alpha-amino acids to backbone modifications and new polymerization chemistries, delineating what substrates the ribosome can accommodate remains a challenge. The Escherichia coli ribosome tolerates non-L-alpha-amino acids in vitro, but few structural insights that explain how are available, and the boundary conditions for efficient bond formation are so far unknown. Here we determine a high-resolution cryogenic electron microscopy structure of the E. coli ribosome containing alpha-amino acid monomers and use metadynamics simulations to define energy surface minima and understand incorporation efficiencies. Reactive monomers across diverse structural classes favour a conformational space where the aminoacyl-tRNA nucleophile is <4 A from the peptidyl-tRNA carbonyl with a Burgi-Dunitz angle of 76-115 degrees . Monomers with free energy minima that fall outside this conformational space do not react efficiently. This insight should accelerate the in vivo and in vitro ribosomal synthesis of sequence-defined, non-peptide heterooligomers.
