Intron excision from tRNA precursors by plant splicing endonuclease requires unique features of the mature tRNA domain

Abstract: It has been proposed that yeast and Xenopus splicing endonucleases initially recognize features in the mature tRNA domain common to all tRNA species and that the sequence and structure of the intron are only minor determinants of splice-site selection. In accordance with this postulation, we show that yeast endonuclease splices heterologous pre-tRNATY' species from vertebrates and plants which differ in their mature domains and intron secondary structures. In contrast, wheat germ splicing endonuclease displays… Show more

“…In vitro processing of pre-tRNAs in yeast nuclear extract Yeast nuclear extract was prepared from S. cerevisiae strain 20B-12 (MAT e pep 4e-3 trpl) as described by Stange et al [40]. In vitro processing assays were carried out under the same conditions as established for the in vitro splicing of pre-tRNAs [40].…”

“…Further, we were unable to splice TRL-78 transcripts in vitro either under self-splicing conditions or using mitochondrial lysates. Finally, the TRL-78 in vitro transcript could not be cut or spliced using yeast tRNA splicing enzymes (M.Steiger and E.Phizicky, personal communication), which have been shown to splice heterologous introncontaining tRNA species from vertebrates and plants (30). We conclude that there is little if any TRL-64 transcript present in Varkud mitochondria and that the 14-nt insert is not recognized as an intron by nuclear or mitochondrial enzymes.…”

“…Perhaps even more surprising is the observation that defects in auxin-controlled growth responses appear to represent the major consequence of this mutation. Unfortunately, we still lack detailed information on tRNA expression control in plants (Lin et al 1992; Stange et al 1992; Carneiro et al 1994; Ulmasov and Folk 1995). So, it remains a mystery as to how a single tRNA anticodon mutation could produce highly defined growth defects, as those observed by Perry and colleagues (Perry et al 2005).…”
