160 We substituted one by one these basic residues with Ala to give the R857A, K860A, K863A, K866A, and K880A mutants of human MetRS. Login to comment
163 Using the gel-mobility shift assay described above, mutants K860A and K880A displayed a large decrease in their affinity for tRNAMet and Acc-tRNAMet (15-25-fold; Table 1). Login to comment
169 The KM and kcat values determined for MetRS-K863A and -K866A were similar to those of the wild type (Table 2), and both values were significantly higher for mutants K860A and K880A. Login to comment
