UniProt functional annotation for P0A8P1

UniProt code: P0A8P1.

Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia.
 
Function: Functions in the N-end rule pathway of protein degradation where it conjugates Leu, Phe and, less efficiently, Met from aminoacyl- tRNAs to the N-termini of proteins containing an N-terminal arginine or lysine.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=L-leucyl-tRNA(Leu) + N-terminal L-lysyl-[protein] = H(+) + N- terminal L-leucyl-L-lysyl-[protein] + tRNA(Leu); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:12340, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9613, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9622, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:12670, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:12671, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:65249, ChEBI:CHEBI:78442, ChEBI:CHEBI:78494, ChEBI:CHEBI:133043; EC=2.3.2.6;
