| UniProt functional annotation for P00952 | |||
| UniProt code: P00952. |
| Organism: | Geobacillus stearothermophilus (Bacillus stearothermophilus). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Bacillales; Bacillaceae; Geobacillus. | |
| Function: | Catalyzes the attachment of tyrosine to tRNA(Tyr) in a two- step reaction: tyrosine is first activated by ATP to form Tyr-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Tyr). | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=ATP + L-tyrosine + tRNA(Tyr) = AMP + diphosphate + H(+) + L- tyrosyl-tRNA(Tyr); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10220, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9706, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9707, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616, ChEBI:CHEBI:33019, ChEBI:CHEBI:58315, ChEBI:CHEBI:78442, ChEBI:CHEBI:78536, ChEBI:CHEBI:456215; EC=6.1.1.1; | |
| Biophysicochemical properties: | Kinetic parameters: KM=1.35 mM for ATP {ECO:0000269|PubMed:6315404}; KM=1.8 uM for tyrosine {ECO:0000269|PubMed:6315404}; | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. TyrS type 1 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
