Recently, tRNA aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pairs have been evolved that, allow one to genetically encode a large array of unnatural amino acids in, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. We have determined the crystal, structures of two substrate-bound Methanococcus jannaschii tyrosyl, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases that charge the unnatural amino acids, p-bromophenylalanine and 3-(2-naphthyl)alanine (NpAla). A comparison of, these structures with the substrate-bound WT synthetase, as well as a, mutant synthetase that charges p-acetylphenylalanine, shows that altered, specificity is due to both side-chain and backbone rearrangements within, the active site that modify hydrogen bonds and packing interactions with, substrate, as well as disrupt the alpha8-helix, which spans the WT active, site. The high degree of structural plasticity that is observed in these, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases is rarely found in other mutant enzymes with, altered specificities and provides an explanation for the surprising, adaptability of the genetic code to novel amino acids.
