'''DIMERIZATION DOMAIN OF EF-TS FROM T. THERMOPHILUS'''<br />


==Overview==
==DIMERIZATION DOMAIN OF EF-TS FROM T. THERMOPHILUS==
Elongation factor Ts (EF-Ts) functions as a nucleotide-exchange factor by, binding elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) and accelerating the GDP dissociation, from EF-Tu; thus EF-Ts promotes the transition of EF-Tu from the inactive, GDP form to the active GTP form. Thermus thermophilus EF-Ts exists as a, stable dimer in solution which binds two molecules of EF-Tu to form a, (EF-Tu.EF-Ts)2 heterotetramer. Here we report the crystal structure of the, dimerization domain of EF-Ts from T. thermophilus refined to 1.7 A, resolution. A three-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet from each subunit, interacts to form a beta-sandwich that serves as an extensive dimer, interface tethered by a disulfide bond. This interface is distinctly, different from the predominantly alpha-helical one that stabilizes the, EF-Ts dimer from Escherichia coli [Kawashima, T., et al. (1996) Nature, 379, 511-518]. To test whether the homodimeric form of T. thermophilus, EF-Ts is necessary for catalyzing nucleotide exchange, the present, structure was used to design mutational changes within the dimer interface, that disrupt the T. thermophilus EF-Ts dimer but not the tertiary, structure of the subunits. Surprisingly, EF-Ts monomers created in this, manner failed to catalyze nucleotide exchange in EF-Tu, indicating that, in vitro. T. thermophilus EF-Ts functions only as a homodimer.

== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/EFTS_THET8 EFTS_THET8] Associates with the EF-Tu.GDP complex and induces the exchange of GDP to GTP. It remains bound to the aminoacyl-tRNA.EF-Tu.GTP complex up to the GTP hydrolysis stage on the ribosome.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Elongation factor Ts (EF-Ts) functions as a nucleotide-exchange factor by binding elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) and accelerating the GDP dissociation from EF-Tu; thus EF-Ts promotes the transition of EF-Tu from the inactive GDP form to the active GTP form. Thermus thermophilus EF-Ts exists as a stable dimer in solution which binds two molecules of EF-Tu to form a (EF-Tu.EF-Ts)2 heterotetramer. Here we report the crystal structure of the dimerization domain of EF-Ts from T. thermophilus refined to 1.7 A resolution. A three-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet from each subunit interacts to form a beta-sandwich that serves as an extensive dimer interface tethered by a disulfide bond. This interface is distinctly different from the predominantly alpha-helical one that stabilizes the EF-Ts dimer from Escherichia coli [Kawashima, T., et al. (1996) Nature 379, 511-518]. To test whether the homodimeric form of T. thermophilus EF-Ts is necessary for catalyzing nucleotide exchange, the present structure was used to design mutational changes within the dimer interface that disrupt the T. thermophilus EF-Ts dimer but not the tertiary structure of the subunits. Surprisingly, EF-Ts monomers created in this manner failed to catalyze nucleotide exchange in EF-Tu, indicating that, in vitro. T. thermophilus EF-Ts functions only as a homodimer.
