[Affinity modification of Escherichia coli ribosomes with 2',3'-O-[4-(N-2-chloroethyl)-N-methylamino]-benzylidene derivative of AUGU3 in the 70S initiation complexes].

Affinity labelling of the Escherichia coli ribosomes with the 2',3'-O-[4-(N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-methylamino]benzylidene derivative of AUGU3(AUGU3[14C]CHRCl) has been studied within 70S initiation complexes ribosome.AUGU3[14C]CHRCl.fMet-tRNA(Metf) and binary complex ribosome.

[mRNA-binding site of ribosomes at different stages of translation. II. Affinity modification of Escherichia coli ribosomes bya benzylidene derivative of AUGU6 in pre- and post-translation complexes].

Affinity labeling of E. coli ribosomes with the 2',3'-O-[4-(N-2-chloroethyl)-N-methyl-amino]benzylidene derivative of AUGU6 (AUGU6-[14C]CHRCl) was studied within the pretranslocational complex ribosome.AUGU6[14C]CHRCl.

[Preparation of Escherichia coli 70S ribosomes labeled with 35S].

[35S]--70S ribosomes (150 Ci/mmol) were isolated from E. coli MRE-600 cells grown on glucose-mineral media in the presence of [35S] ammonium sulfate. The labeled 30S and 50S subunits were obtained from [35S] ribosomes by centrifugation in a sucrose density gradient of 10--30% under dissociating conditions (0.

[The use of cross-linking platinum reagents in the study of tRNA and mRNA interaction with ribosomes].

The use of some bifunctional Pt(II)-containing cross-linking reagents for investigation of structural organization of ribosomal tRNA- and mRNA-binding centres is demonstrated for various types of [70S ribosome.mRNA-tRNA] complexes. It is shown that treatment of the complexes [70S ribosome.

[Complementary addressed alkylation of Escherichia coli 16S rRNA with 2',3'-O-[4-2-chloroethyl)-N-methylamino]benzylidene derivatives of deoxyribooligonucleotides. II. The nature of rapid interaction at 0 degrees C].

Fast non-covalent interactions of 16S rRNA Escherichia coli with 14C labeled 2',3'-O-[4-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-methylamino]benzylidene derivatives of deoxyribooligonucleotides d(pACCTTGTT)rA, d[pTTACGATC)rU, d(pTTTGCTCCCC)rA (less than[14C]CHRCl-reagents) observed at 0 degrees C were investigated. It was shown, that 16S rRNA and [14C]CHRCl-reagents at 0 degrees C form stable complexes which can not be disrupted under mild acidic conditions (pH 4, 40 degrees C) and under denaturing conditions (7 M urea, 50 degrees C), but are completely disrupted in the course of centrifugation in sucrose density gradient in the presence of SDS. Formation of such complexes of 16S rRNA with greater than[14C]CHRCl-reagents at 0 degrees C was observed due to the presence in the reagent preparation of a number of unidentified products, formed in the course of the synthesis of benzylidene derivatives, and having a hydrophobicity larger, than those for greater than CHRCl-derivatives of deoxyribooligonucleotide.

[Affinity modification of Escherichia coli ribosomes with photoactivated analogs of mRNA].

Oligoribonucleotide derivatives containing the photoactivated arylazidogroup at 5'-end of the oligonucleotide fragment [2-(N-2,4-dinitro-5-azidophenyl) aminoethyl] phosphamides of the oligoribonucleotides, azido-NH (CH2)2NHpN (pN) n-1, were prepared. It was demonstrated that azido-NH(CH2)2NHpA(pA)4 and azido-NH (CH2)2NHpU (pU)3 stimulate the binding of the codonspecific aminoacyl-tRNA with ribosome. After irradiation of the ternary complex ribosome-azido-NH (CH2)2NHpU (pU) n-1 X tRNA with UV-light (lambda greater than 350 nm) covalent binding of the reagent to ribosome occurs.
