Threonine--tRNA ligase editing subunit

UniProtKB accession:  Q9YFY3

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Freestanding tRNA editing subunit of threonine--tRNA ligase, the catalytic subunit is probably AC Q9YDW0. Deacylates (edits) mischarged L-seryl-tRNA(Thr) in trans; has no activity on correctly charged L-threonyl-tRNA(Thr) (PubMed:26113036). Probably does not aminoacylate tRNA(Thr) (By similarity). Deacylates correctly charged glycyl-tRNA(Gly), but not glycyl-tRNA(Gly)(2'-dA76) (the terminal 2'-OH of tRNA adenine 76 has been dehydroxylated) nor the 2'-fluoro tRNA derivative, strongly suggesting the editing function is catalyzed by the 2'-OH of A76 of tRNA(Thr) (PubMed:26113036).
