Ligands: THR Related: 6f87, 6f89 Gene: sua5, PYRAB15960, PAB1302 (PYRAB) Activity: L-threonylcarbamoyladenylate synthase, with EC number 2.7.7.87 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [SUA5_PYRAB] Required for the formation of a threonylcarbamoyl group on adenosine at position 37 (t(6)A37) in tRNAs that read codons beginning with adenine. Likely catalyzes the conversion of L-threonine, HCO(3)(-)/CO(2) and ATP to give threonylcarbamoyl-AMP (TC-AMP) as the acyladenylate intermediate, with the release of diphosphate. Does not bind tRNA. Publication Abstract from PubMed N6-threonyl-carbamoyl adenosine (t6A) is a universal tRNA modification found at position 37, next to the anticodon, in almost all tRNAs decoding ANN codons (where N = A, U, G or C). t6A stabilizes the codon-anticodon interaction and hence promotes translation fidelity. The first step of the biosynthesis of t6A, the production of threonyl-carbamoyl adenylate (TC-AMP), is catalyzed by the Sua5/TsaC family of enzymes. While TsaC is a single domain protein, Sua5 enzymes are composed of the TsaC-like domain, a linker and an extra domain called SUA5 of unknown function. In the present study, we report structure-function analysis of Pyrococcus abyssi Sua5 (Pa-Sua5). Crystallographic data revealed binding sites for bicarbonate substrate and pyrophosphate product. The linker of Pa-Sua5 forms a loop structure that folds into the active site gorge and closes it. Using structure-guided mutational analysis we established that the conserved sequence motifs in the linker and the domain-domain interface are essential for the function of Pa-Sua5. We propose that the linker participates actively in the biosynthesis of TC-AMP by binding to ATP/PPi and by stabilizing the N-carboxy-L-threonine intermediate. Hence, TsaC orthologs which lack such a linker and SUA5 domain use different mechanism for TC-AMP synthesis. Structure-function analysis of Sua5 protein reveals novel functional motifs required for the biosynthesis of the universal t6A tRNA modification.,Pichard-Kostuch A, Zhang W, Liger D, Daugeron MC, Letoquart J, Li de la Sierra-Gallay I, Forterre P, Collinet B, van Tilbeurgh H, Basta T RNA. 2018 Apr 12. pii: rna.066092.118. doi: 10.1261/rna.066092.118.
