Histidyl-tRNA Synthetase
Histidyl tRNA Synthetase (HisRS) is a 94kD that belongs to the Class II of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRS). Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases have been partitioned into two classes, containing 10 members, on the basis of sequence comparisons[1]. ClassI and Class II differ mainly with respect to the topology of the catalytic fold and site of esterification on cognate tRNA[1]. Class II enzymes have a composed of anti-parallel β-sheets and α-helices (residues 1-325).
