Abstract

Different chemical reagents were used to study the tertiary structure of yeast tRNASer, a tRNA with a large variable region: ethylnitrosourea, which alkylates the phosphate groups; dimethylsulphate, which methylates N-7 of guanosine and N-3 of cytosine; and diethylpyrocarbonate, which modifies N-7 of adenine. The non-reactivity of N-3 of cytidine 47:1, 47:6, 47:7 and 47:8 and the reactivity of cytidine 47:3 confirms the existence of a variable stem of four base-pairs and a short variable loop of three residues. For the N-7 positions in purines, accessible residues are G1, G10, Gm18, G19, G30, I34, G35, A36, i6A37, G45, G47, G47:5, G47:9 and G73. The protection of N-7 atoms of residues G9, G15, A21, A22 and G47:9 reflects the tertiary folding. Strong phosphate protection was observed for P8 to P11, P20:1 to P22, P48 to P50 and for P59 and P60. A model was built on a PS300 graphic system on the basis of these data and its stereochemistry refined. While trying to keep most tertiary interactions, we adapted the tertiary folding of the known structures of tRNAAsp and tRNAPhe to the present sequence and solution data. The resulting model has the variable arm not far from the plane of the common L-shaped structure. A generalization of this model to other tRNAs with large variable regions is discussed.
