Overview

Basic information about this protein and its source genome.

Accession: VK055_2424
Assembly: Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae strain ATCC 43816 KPPR1, complete genome
Gene: gluQ AIK81021.1
Status: annotated
Amino acids: 293
Structure source: AlphaFold + ColabFold

6.1.1.-

GO:0043039 The chemical reactions and pathways by which the various amino acids become bonded to their corresponding tRNAs. The most common route for synthesis of aminoacyl tRNA is by the formation of an ester bond between the 3'-hydroxyl group of the most 3' adenosine of the tRNA and the alpha carboxylic acid group of an amino acid, usually catalyzed by the cognate aminoacyl-tRNA ligase. A given aminoacyl-tRNA ligase aminoacylates all species of an isoaccepting group of tRNA molecules. GO:0005524 Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator. GO:0006424 The process of coupling glutamate to glutamyl-tRNA, catalyzed by glutamyl-tRNA synthetase. The glutamyl-tRNA synthetase is a class-I synthetase. The activated amino acid is transferred to the 2'-OH group of a glutamic acid-accetping tRNA. The 2'-O-aminoacyl-tRNA will ultimately migrate to the 3' position via transesterification. GO:0006400 The covalent alteration of one or more nucleotides within a tRNA molecule to produce a tRNA molecule with a sequence that differs from that coded genetically. GO:0008270 Binding to a zinc ion (Zn). GO:0004812 Catalysis of the formation of aminoacyl-tRNA from ATP, amino acid, and tRNA with the release of diphosphate and AMP.
