Fergus, Claire; Al-qasem, Mashael; Cotter, Michelle; McDonnell, Ciara M.; Sorrentino, Emiliano; Chevot, Franciane; Hokamp, Karsten; Senge, Mathias O.; Southern, John M.; Connon, Stephen J.; Kelly, Vincent P. published the artcile< The human tRNA-guanine transglycosylase displays promiscuous nucleobase preference but strict tRNA specificity>, SDS of cas: 69205-79-4, the main research area is human tRNA guanine transglycosylase deazaguanine derivative queuosine protein translation.
Base-modification can occur throughout a tRNA mol.; however, elaboration is particularly prevalent at position 34 of the anticodon loop (the wobble position), where it functions to influence protein translation. Previously, we demonstrated that the queuosine modification at position 34 can be substituted with an artificial analog via the queuine tRNA ribosyltransferase enzyme to induce disease recovery in an animal model of multiple sclerosis. Here, we demonstrate that the human enzyme can recognize a very broad range of artificial 7-deazaguanine derivatives for tRNA incorporation. By contrast, the enzyme displays strict specificity for tRNA species decoding the dual synonymous NAU/C codons, determined using a novel enzyme-RNA capture-release method. Our data highlight the broad scope and therapeutic potential of exploiting the queuosine incorporation pathway to intentionally engineer chem. diversity into the tRNA anticodon.
