General protein information

Names
lysyl-tRNA synthetase
YP_067320.1
  • class I; LysRS1; catalyzes a two-step reaction, first charging a lysine molecule by linking its carboxyl group to the alpha-phosphate of ATP, followed by transfer of the aminoacyl-adenylate to its tRNA; in Methanosarcina barkeri this enzyme charges both tRNA molecules for lysine that exist in this organism (but the tRNALysUUU very poorly) and in the presence of LysRS2 can charge tRNAPyl with lysine
