Structural analysis of spermine and magnesium ion binding to yeast phenylalanine transfer RNA.
Open accessAbstract
Refinement of the diffraction data at 2.5-A resolution from orthorhombic crystals of yeast tRNAPhe has proceeded to the point where spermine and magnesium ions can be located in the difference electron density map. Two spermine molecules are found: one is located in the major groove at one end of the anticodon stem; the other is near the variable loop and curls around phosphate 10 in a region where the polynucleotide chain takes a sharp turn. Four distinct magnesium ions have been identified: one in the anticodon loop, two in the D loop, and one coordinated with phosphates 8, 9, 11, and 12, where the polynucleotide chain is coiled. The conformation of the anticodon stem and loop is stabilized by the cations at the end of the molecule. The positions of these ions may be related to aspects of the biological activity of tRNA. The spermine and magnesium ions appear to be important in maintaining the overall folding of the tRNA molecule.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
