[Crosslinking of mRNA analog, pUUAGUAUUUAUU derivative with a photoactivated group at the guanosine residue, with human 80S ribosomes].
Crosslinking of mRNA analog, dodecaribonucleotide pUUAGUAUUUAUU derivative carrying a perfluoroarylazido group at the guanine N7, was studied in model complexes with 80S ribosomes involving tRNA and in binary complex (i.e., in the absence of tRNA). It was shown that, irrespectively of complex formation conditions (13 mM Mg2+, or 4 mM Mg2+ in the presence of polyamines), the mRNA analog in binary complex with 80S ribosomes was crosslinked with sequence 1840-1849 of 18S rRNA, but in the complexes formed with participation of Phe-TPHKPhe (where the G residue carrying the arylazido group occupied position-3 to the first nucleotide of the UUU codon at the P site) the analog was crosslinked with nucleotide 1207. The presence and the nature of tRNA at the E site had no effect on the environment of position-3 of the mRNA analog. Efficient crosslinking of the mRNA analog with tRNA was observed in all studied types of complex. Modified codon GUA, when located at the E site, underwent crosslinking with both cognate valine tRNA and noncognate aspartate tRNA for which the extent of binding at the E site of 80S ribosomes was almost the same and depended little on Mg2+ concentration and the presence of polyamines.
