A structural and mechanistic explanation for the selection of tRNAs by the, ribosome has been elusive. Here, we report crystal structures of the 30S, ribosomal subunit with codon and near-cognate tRNA anticodon stem loops, bound at the decoding center and compare affinities of equivalent, complexes in solution. In ribosomal interactions with near-cognate tRNA, deviation from Watson-Crick geometry results in uncompensated desolvation, of hydrogen-bonding partners at the codon-anticodon minor groove. As a, result, the transition to a closed form of the 30S induced by cognate tRNA, is unfavorable for near-cognate tRNA unless paromomycin induces part of, the rearrangement. We conclude that stabilization of a closed 30S, conformation is required for tRNA selection, and thereby structurally, rationalize much previous data on translational fidelity.

Structure of the Thermus thermophilus 30S ribosomal subunit bound to codon and near-cognate transfer RNA anticodon stem-loop mismatched at the first codon position at the a site with paromomycin

Overview

A structural and mechanistic explanation for the selection of tRNAs by the ribosome has been elusive. Here, we report crystal structures of the 30S ribosomal subunit with codon and near-cognate tRNA anticodon stem loops bound at the decoding center and compare affinities of equivalent complexes in solution. In ribosomal interactions with near-cognate tRNA, deviation from Watson-Crick geometry results in uncompensated desolvation of hydrogen-bonding partners at the codon-anticodon minor groove. As a result, the transition to a closed form of the 30S induced by cognate tRNA is unfavorable for near-cognate tRNA unless paromomycin induces part of the rearrangement. We conclude that stabilization of a closed 30S conformation is required for tRNA selection, and thereby structurally rationalize much previous data on translational fidelity.

About this Structure
