- Ribosomal rpsD mutations did not stimulate nonsense suppressor tRNAs in a general manner according to their increased ribosomal ambiguity and decreased proofreading efficiency. Streptomycin, which stimulates error production by blocking proofreading in vitro, did not increase efficiency of suppressor tRNAs in strains with normal or streptomycin-resistant (rpsL) ribosomes. It did so only in combination with one rpsL mutation which is associated with streptomycin pseudodependence.

- Ribosomal mutants (rpsD) which are associated with a generally increased translational ambiguity were investigated for their effects in vivo on individual tRNA species using suppressor tRNAs as models. It was found that nonsense suppression is either increased, unaffected or decreased depending on the codon context and the rpsD allele involved as well as the nature of the suppressor tRNA. Missense suppression of AGA and AGG by glyT(SuAGA/G) tRNA as well as UGG by glyT(SuUGG-8) tRNA is unaffected whereas suppression of UGG by glyT(SuUGA/G) or glyV(SuUGA/G) tRNA is decreased in the presence of an rpsD mutation. The effects on suppressor tRNA are thus not correlated with the ribosomal ambiguity (Ram) phenotype of the rpsD mutants used in this study. It is suggested that the mutationally altered ribosomes are changed in functional interactions with the suppressor tRNA itself rather than with the competing translational release factor(s) or cognate aminoacyl tRNA. The structure of suppressor tRNA, particularly the anticodon loop, and the suppressed codon as well as the codon context determine the allele specific functional interactions with these ribosomal mutations.

Involvement of ribosomal protein L7/L12 in control of translational accuracy

- The effects of two mutations, which map at the rplL locus and both give a changed 50S ribosomal protein L7/L12, were studied. Both mutations are associated with an increased misreading of all three nonsense codons in vivo and ribosomes from the mutants give an increased misreading of the phenylalanine codon UUU by tRNALeu in vitro. The rplL-associated misreading in vitro is not limited to a particular type of mRNA or tRNA. Results from a translational proofreading assay, using mutant ribosomes, suggest that protein L7/L12 is involved in the control of translational accuracy by contributing to the efficiency of a translational proofreading step(s).
