Abstract
Aspartyl-tRNA synthetase from yeast (AspRS) was screened for functional domains by measuring the effect of two types of amino acid mutations on its catalytic properties: (a) insertion of a dipeptide or a tetrapeptide along the polypeptide chain, (b) deletion of various lengths from the enzyme C-terminal. It was shown that insertion mutations significantly affect the kinetic properties of AspRS only when occurring in the second quarter of the molecule and the two centrally located mutations even inactivate the enzyme completely. Analysis of kinetic data strongly suggests that, in fact, all the observed activity modifications result from alteration of the activation reaction rate constant, kappa cat only. This led to the conclusion that the domain involved in aspartic acid activation should be located in the second quarter of the molecule. Furthermore, a deletion mutant with a modification of the last five amino acid residues was isolated. This mutant is fully active in the activation step, but has lost 80% of the wild-type aminoacylation activity. This involvement of the C-terminus in acylation implies that it has to be folded towards strategic regions of the enzyme, thus favouring conformations required for catalysis or maintaining the tRNA in a functional position.

Abstract
Yeast aspartyl-tRNA synthetase is a dimeric enzyme (alpha 2, Mr 125,000) which can be crystallized either alone or complexed with tRNAAsp. When analyzed by electrophoretic methods, the pure enzyme presents structural heterogeneities even when recovered from crystals. Up to three enzyme populations could be identified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and more than ten by isoelectric focusing. They have similar molecular masses and mainly differ in their charge. All are fully active. This microheterogeneity is also revealed by ion-exchange chromatography and chromatofocusing. Several levels of heterogeneity have been defined. A first type, which is reversible, is linked to redox effects and/or to conformational states of the protein. A second one, revealed by immunological methods, is generated by partial and differential proteolysis occurring during enzyme purification from yeast cells harvested in growth phase. As demonstrated by end-group analysis, the fragmentation concerns exclusively the N-terminal end of the enzyme. The main cleavage points are Gln-19, Val-20 and Gly-26. Six minor cuts are observed between positions 14 and 33. The present data are discussed in the perspective of the crystallographic studies on aspartyl-tRNA synthetase.

Abstract
A large scale purification procedure of baker's yeast aspartyl-tRNA synthetase is described which yields more than 200 mg pure protein starting from 30 Kg of wet commercial cells. The synthetase is an alpha 2 dimer of Mr = 125,000 +/- 5,000 which can be crystallized (J. Mol. Biol. 138, 1980, 129-135). The enzyme has an elongated shape with a Stokes radius of 50 A and a frictional ratio of 1.5. The synthetase has a tendency to aggregate but methods are described where this effect is overcome.

Abstract
Several lines of evidence establish that the crystallizable aspartyl-tRNA synthetase from Baker's yeast contains some covalently bound glucose: (i) a positive staining of the enzyme was obtained after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by the concanavalin A-peroxidase test which is specific for glucose and mannose containing proteins; (ii) thin-layer chromatography and gas-liquid chromatography revealed the presence of glucose in enzyme hydrolysates; (iii) immunoaffinoelectrophoresis in agarose gels containing concanavalin A and antibodies raised against aspartyl-tRNA synthetase showed that the enzyme was able to precipitate entirely in the lectin. Finally incubation of the enzyme with [14C]glucose or [14C]glucose 6-phosphate led to the incorporation of radioactivity into trichloroacetic acid-precipitable protein. Indeed immunoprecipitation of [14C]glucose-labelled aspartyl-tRNA synthetase with specific antibodies using the rocket method followed by autoradiography gave a radioactive peak. This last result also demonstrates the possibility of in vitro glycosylation of yeast aspartyl-tRNA synthetase.

Abstract
Isoelectric points and isoelectric focusing behaviour of 10 highly purified eukaryotic aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases from 3 sources, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Euglena gracilis and Phaseolus vulgaris were examined. The pI-values measured on polyacrylamide gels under native conditions are situated between pH 5.0-7.5. A microheterogeneity was observed for 9 enzymes appearing otherwise homogeneous on gel electrophoresis. A compilation of the isoelectric points of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases is given and literature data are compared with our experimental results.

Abstract
The alkylation by ethylnitrosourea of phosphodiester bonds in tRNAPhe from yeast and in tRNAVal from yeast and from rabbit liver and that by 4-(N-2-chloroethyl-N-methylamino)-benzylamine of N-7 atoms of guanosine residues in yeast tRNAVal have been used to study the interaction of these tRNAs with aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. The modifications occurring at low yield were carried out on 3' and/or 5' end-labelled tRNAs either free or in the presence of cognate or non-cognate synthetases. After splitting of the tRNAs at the alkylated positions, the position of the modification sites in the tRNA sequences were detected by acrylamide gel electrophoresis. It was found that the synthetases protect against alkylation certain phosphate or guanosine residues in their cognate tRNAs. Non-cognate synthetases failed to protect efficiently specific positions in tRNA against modification. In yeast tRNAPhe the cognate phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase protects certain phosphates located in all four stems and in the anticodon and extra-loop of the tRNA. Particularly strong protections occur on phosphate 34 in the anticodon loop and on phosphates 23, 27, 28, 41 and 46 in the D and anticodon stems. In yeast tRNAVal complexed with yeast valyl-tRNA synthetase the protected phosphates are essentially located in the corner between the amino-acid-accepting and D stems, in the D loop, anticodon stem and in the variable region of the tRNA. Three guanosine residues, located in the D stem, and another one in the 3' part of the anticodon stem were also found protected by the synthetase. In mammalian tRNAVal, complexed with the cognate but heterologous yeast valyl-tRNA synthetase, the protected phosphates lie in the anticodon stem, in the extra-loop and in the T psi arm. The location of the protected residues in the structure of three tRNAs suggests some common features in the binding of tRNAs to aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. These results will be discussed in the light of informations on interaction sites obtained by nuclease digestion and ultraviolet cross-linking methods.

Abstract
Tryptic and cyanogen bromide peptides derived from yeast aspartyl-tRNA synthetase and from Escherichia coli ribosomal proteins were separated by reversed-phase liquid chromatography, employing volatile buffers of low ionic strength. The conditions used allow the performance of micro-sequencing without desalting or extensive lyophilization, and can therefore be applied to peptide mixtures containing hydrophobic fragments which tend to precipitate. To prevent losses of peptides, direct ultra-violet detection of the peptides was preferred, to detection by post-column derivatization with an additional stream splitting device. Preparative separations were performed with 5-10 nmol of peptide mixture; analytical runs were made with 5-10 micrograms of protein hydrolysate.

Abstract
Aspartic acid can be covalently linked to yeast aspartyl-tRNA synthetase and to other proteins, in the absence of tRNA, under conditions where the synthetase activates the amino acid into aspartyl-adenylate, i.e., in the presence of ATP and MgCl2. The linkage between aspartic acid and the protein is acid and alkali resistant; thus it is likely a peptide-like amide bond formed between the activated carboxylate group of aspartic acid and the primary amine function of the side chain of lysine residues.

Abstract
The interactions of yeast tRNAAsp with cognate aspartyl-tRNA synthetase have been studied in high concentrations of either sodium chloride or ammonium sulphate by fluorescence titration and small-angle neutron scattering. In solutions containing more than 1M NaCl no complex is formed and enzymatic activity is abolished. In strong contrast, however, the physical measurements showed the formation of a two-to-one tRNA-enzyme complex, with high affinity, in 1.6 M (NH4)2SO4. Aminoacylation assays under the same salt conditions showed the enzymatic fixation of aspartic acid to tRNAAsp to occur at an appreciable rate. The present study emphasizes that the effects of salts on protein-nucleic acid interactions do not depend only on ionic strength but also on the nature of the salt. This study has allowed a rational approach to the crystallisation of a functional tRNAAsp-aspartyl-tRNA synthetase complex (Giegé, Lorber, Ebel, Thierry and Moras (1980) C.R. Acad. Sci. Paris, série D, 291, 393-396).

Abstract
Alanyl- and leucyl-tRNA synthetases from baker's yeast were purified to homogeneity in the presence of the protease inhibitor phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride. Both consist of single polypeptide chains of 118 000 and 125 000 daltons, respectively, as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions. The monomeric structure of leucyl-tRNA synthetase differs from the dimeric one obtained previously in the absence of protease inhibitors. This illustrates the sensitivity of the synthetases to proteolytic actions and indicates that native structures can only be obtained under optimal protecting conditions. Alanyl- and leucyl-tRNA synthetases differ with respect to pH optimum (6.5 and 8.5, respectively), Michaelis constant for amino acid (1 mM and 0.03, respectively) and in the rate-limiting step for the tRNA aminoacylation reaction. Whereas the catalytic step itself was rate-limiting for alanyl-tRNA synthetase, a step occurring after this was rate-limiting for leucyl-tRNA synthetase.

Abstract
Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli has been purified to homogeneity with a yield of about 50%. It is a monomer of about 69 000 daltons. Arginyl and glutamyl-tRNA synthetases are also monomeric synthetases of molecular weight significantly lower than 100 000. In addition it is well known that these three synthetases require their cognate tRNA to catalyze the [32P]PPi-ATP exchange. Like arginyl-tRNA synthetase, but unlike glutamyl-tRNA synthetase, glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase seems to contain some repeated sequences. Therefore no correlation can be established between the tRNA requirement of these synthetases for the catalysis of the isotope-exchange and the presence or the absence of sequence duplication. In the native enzyme four sulfhydryl groups react with dithiobisnitrobenzoic acid causing a loss of both the aminoacylation and the [32P]PPi-ATP exchange activities. The rate-limiting steps of the overall aminoacylation and its reverse reaction correspond, respectively, to the catalysis of the aminoacylation of tRNA Gln and of the the deacylation of glutaminyl-tRNA Gln. At acidic pH, glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase catalyzes the synthesis of the glutaminyl-tRNA Gln and its deacylation at significantly lower rates than the [32P]PPi-ATP exchange, indicating than glutaminyl-tRNA Gln cannot be an obligatory intermediate in this isotope exchange. These results suggest the existence of a two-step aminoacylation mechanism catalyzed by this enzyme.

Abstract
The thermodynamics of tRNAAsp unfolding was studied using a precision scanning microcalorimeter. The overall heat of melting was found to be about 55 J/g irrespective of the ionic strength and magnesium activity. The analysis of complex melting curves obtained in the absence of Mg2+ reveals four successive two-state transitions. The first was identified as the cooperative melting of the tertiary structure and the D region and the others as the melting of individual helical arms.

Abstract
Several fractionation steps are described which can be applied to the partial purification of the 20 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases from commercial baker's yeast. Comparative experiments performed in the presence or absence of protease inhibitors revealed that some enzymes prepared in the presence of the inhibitor exhibit much higher specific activities than the proteins extracted in the absence of the inhibitor. The methodology reported can be used for the simultaneous preparation of several pure aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. As examples, the large scale purification of phenylalanyl-and valyl-tRNA synthetases are described.

Abstract
Arginyl-tRNA synthetase from baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, strain 836) was obtained pure by a large-scale preparative method, which involves four chromatographic columns and one preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic step. The enzyme has a high specific activity (9000 U/mg) and consists of a single polypeptide chain of molecular weight approximately 73000 as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecylsulphate. Amino acid analysis of the enzyme permitted calculation of the absorption coefficient of arginyl-tRNA synthetase (A(1 mg/ml 280 nm)=1.26). Concerning kinetic parameters of the enzyme we found the following Km values: 0.28 muM, 300 muM, 1.5 muM for tRNA(Arg III), ATP and arginine in the aminoacylation reaction, and 1400 muM, 2.5 muM, and 50 muM for ATP, arginine and PP(i) in the ATP-PP(i) exchange reaction. Arginyl-tRNA synthetase required tRNA(Arg III) to catalyse the ATP-PP(i) exchange reaction.
