+ | TARS adds amino acid to tRNA by a two-step mechanism. First the enzyme binds to both Threonine and ATP in the catalytic domain to perform an adenylation reaction in which pyrophosphate is released as a byproduct. This is then follow up by a transferring Thr from Adenosine monophosphate molecule to 3'OH site of tRNA-thr. <ref>Lehninger, A. L., Nelson, D. L., & Cox, M. M. (2000).
