Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs), the enzymes responsible for coupling tRNAs to their cognate amino acids, minimize translational errors by intrinsic hydrolytic editing. Here, we compared the propensity of norvaline (Nva), a linear amino acid not coded for protein synthesis, to the proteinogenic, ...

In the present study we analyzed the response of S. aureus to mupirocin, the drug of choice for nasal decolonization of S. aureus. Mupirocin selectively inhibits the bacterial isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IleRSs) leading to the accumulation of uncharged isoleucyl-tRNA and hence (p)ppGpp. The latter is...

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are key enzymes in protein synthesis, as they catalyze the attachment of amino acids to their designated, cognate tRNAs. As such, mutations in aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are associated with severe diseases, such as neurodevelopmental disorders. Many of these mutations fall...

Isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IleRS) is an essential enzyme that covalently couples isoleucine to the corresponding tRNA. Bacterial IleRSs group in two clades, ileS1 and ileS2, the latter bringing resistance to the natural antibiotic mupirocin. Generally, bacteria rely on either ileS1 or ileS2 as a sta...

HipAB is a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system that targets and inactivates specific aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases in response to various stresses. While the molecular targets and neutralization mechanisms of several HipAB-like TA systems have been well characterized, their structural and functional di...

Correct pairing of amino acids and tRNA is prerequisite for correct translation of genetic information during protein biosynthesis. Here, we present effects of proteome-wide isoleucine mistranslation in Escherichia coli induced by editing-defective isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IleRS). Two types of mis...
