2.1.1.228 additional information the m1G37 methylation by TrmD does not need any other prior modification, aminoacylation, or even CCA addition to tRNA. Transient nature of Mg2+ is consistent with the proposed catalytic mechanism involving G37-tRNA. In this mechanism, D169 is the general base to abstract the N1 proton from G37, while the deprotonation is accompanied by developing electron density on the O6 of G37. The developing negative charge on O6 of G37 is stabilized through coordination with Mg2+ and by hydrogen-bond interaction with the side chain of R154. The charge stabilization of O6 in turn facilitates Mg2+ to coordinate with the general base D169 and to help it to align more properly for proton abstraction. The activated N1 nucleophile is then poised for nucleophilic attack on the sulfonium center of AdoMet, resulting in synthesis of m1G37-tRNA and release of AdoHcy. The rate-limiting step is assigned to the action of D169, rather than to the protonation of the leaving group, due to the importance of D169 and the increase of activity as the proton concentration is lowered Aquifex aeolicus

2.1.1.228 physiological function while the greatest majority of the tRNA modifying enzymes are nonessential for life, acting for example as a chaperone to modulate tRNA activity, a very small number of these enzymes are absolutely required for cell growth and survival. TrmD is an example of one of these essential enzymes, responsible for methyl transfer from AdoMet to the N1 position of the G37 base to synthesize m1G37 on tRNA. The methylated m1G37 is on the 3?-side of the anticodon, and it is necessary for suppressing tRNA frameshifting during protein synthesis on the ribosome TrmD is an S-adenosyl methionine (AdoMet)-dependent methyl transferase that synthesizes the methylated m1G37 in tRNA. TrmD is specific to and essential for bacterial growth, and it is fundamentally distinct from its eukaryotic and archaeal counterpart Trm5. TrmD is unusual by using a topological protein knot to bind AdoMet. Despite its restricted mobility, the TrmD knot has complex dynamics necessary to transmit the signal of AdoMet binding to promote tRNA binding and methyl transfer. TrmD is unique among AdoMet-dependent methyl transferases in that it requires Mg2+ in the catalytic mechanism. The Mg2+ dependence is important for regulating Mg2+ transport to Salmonella for survival of the pathogen in the host cell. The trefoil knot of TrmD is required for the catalytic mechanism in three ways. Synthesis of m1G37-tRNA by TrmD is a posttranscriptional event Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium
