Optimized periphery-core interface increases fitness of the Bacillus subtilis glmS ribozyme


ABSTRACT: Like other functional RNAs, ribozymes contain a conserved catalytic center supported by peripheral domains that vary among ribozyme sub-families. To understand how core-peripheral interactions contribute to ribozyme fitness, we compared the cleavage kinetics of all single base substitutions at 152 sites across the Bacillus subtilis glmS ribozyme by high-throughput sequencing (ClvSeq). The in vitro activity map mirrored phylogenetic sequence conservation in glmS ribozymes, indicating that biological fitness reports all biochemically important positions. Most deleterious mutations impaired RNA self-assembly. All-atom MD simulations of the complete ribozyme revealed how individual mutations in the core or the IL4 peripheral loop rewire the network of hydrogen bonds around the catalytic site. Remarkably, IL4 mutations introduce a non-native helix interface that corrupts folding of the wild type core, eliminating activity. The results illustrate how competition between native and non-native structures in RNA drives the natural selection of central and peripheral tertiary interaction motifs.
