Pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthase (PylRS) is a protein found in anaerobic archaea and bacteria. PylRS facilitates the installation of pyrrolysine. It binds to the pyrrolysine substrate. This protein has two functional domains. It has a C-terminus, which is the catalytic domain (PylSc) and has a Rossmann fold, which is a tertiary fold that binds to nucleotides. The other functional domain is the N-terminus that does the tRNA binding (PylSn). These two functional domains can work together to install two noncanonical amino acids at the same time.

PylRS has two domains, an N-terminal and a C-terminal. The N-terminal is responsible for tRNA-binding, PylSn. The C-terminal is the catalytic domain, PylSc.

This Sandbox is Reserved from Mar 1 through Jun 1, 2023 for use in the course CHEM 351 Biochemistry taught by Bonnie_Hall at the Grand View University, Des Moines, USA. This reservation includes Sandbox Reserved 1796 through Sandbox Reserved 1811.
To get started:
  • Click the edit this page tab at the top. Save the page after each step, then edit it again.
  • show the Scene authoring tools, create a molecular scene, and save it. Copy the green link into the page.
  • Add a description of your scene. Use the buttons above the wikitext box for bold, italics, links, headlines, etc.
