AbstractMost bacteria employ a two-step indirect tRNA aminoacylation pathway for the synthesis of aminoacylated tRNAGln and tRNAAsn. The heterotrimeric enzyme GatCAB performs a critical amidotransferase reaction in the second step of this pathway. We have previously demonstrated in mycobacteria that this two-step pathway is error-prone and translational errors contribute to adaptive phenotypes such as antibiotic tolerance. Furthermore, we identified clinical isolates of the globally important pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis with partial loss-of-function mutations in gatA, and demonstrated that these mutations result in high, specific rates of translational error and increased rifampicin tolerance. However, the mechanisms by which these clinically-derived mutations in gatA impact GatCAB function was unknown. Here, we describe biochemical and biophysical characterization of M. tuberculosis GatCAB, containing either wild-type gatA or one of two gatA mutants from clinical strains. We show that these mutations have minimal impact on enzymatic activity of GatCAB; however, they result in destabilization of the GatCAB complex as well as that of the ternary asparaginyl-transamidosome. Stabilizing complex formation with the solute trehalose increases specific translational fidelity of not only the mutant strains, but also of wild-type mycobacteria. Therefore, our data suggest that alteration of GatCAB stability may be a mechanism for modulation of translational fidelity.
