Base dynamics in a UUCG tetraloop RNA hairpin characterized by 15N spin relaxation: correlations with structure and stability
M Akke et al. RNA. 1997 Jul.
Abstract
Intramolecular dynamics of guanine and uracil bases in a 14-nt RNA hairpin including the extraordinarily stable UUCG tetraloop were studied by 15N spin relaxation experiments that are sensitive to structural fluctuations occurring on a time scale of picoseconds to nanoseconds. The relaxation data were interpreted in the framework of the anisotropic model-free formalism, using assumed values for the chemical shift anisotropies of the 15N spins. The rotational diffusion tensor was determined to be symmetric with an axial ratio of 1.34 +/- 0.12, in agreement with estimates based on the ratio of the principal moments of the inertia tensor. The model-free results indicate that the bases of the G x U pair in the tetraloop are at least as rigid as the interior base pairs in the stem, whereas the 5'-terminal guanine is more flexible. The observed range of order parameters corresponds to base fluctuations of 19-22 degrees about the chi torsion angle. The results reveal dynamical consequences of the unusual structural features in the UUCG tetraloop and offer insights into the configurational entropy of hairpin formation.
