#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant

Phytopathogenic bacteria reside within the intercellular spaces of plant organs or in the xylem and many damage plant tissues by secreting toxins, extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs), or cell wall‐degrading enzymes.

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes

isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase has a nearby editing pocket (a deep cleft in the enzyme) that allows it to proofread the product of the adenylylation reaction. AMP-valine (as well as adenylylates of other small amino acids, such as alanine) can fit into this editing pocket, where it is hydrolyzed and released as free valine and AMP. In contrast, AMP-isoleucine is too large to enter the editing pocket and is therefore not subject to hydrolysis. As a consequence, isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase discriminates against valine twice: in the initial binding and adenylylation of the amino acid (discriminating by a factor of 100), and then in the editing of the adenylylated amino acid (again discriminating by a factor of 100), for an
overall selectivity of 10,000-fold (i.e., an error rate of 0.01%).

                                                                 α-Turn

Contains hydrophilic amino acids and protrudes outside the protein surface like a hook.

Consists of 5 amino acids, generally termed as i, i+1, i+2, i+3 and i+4

H-bond is seen between i and i+4 (First and Fifth residue)

The conformation of i+1, i+2 and i+3 are crucial and on the basis of this, they are classified into

9 groups
