Crystal structure of a C-terminally truncated CYT-18 protein including N-terminal residues
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24520960
Function
[SYYM_NEUCR] Catalyzes the attachment of tyrosine to tRNA(Tyr) in a two-step reaction: tyrosine is first activated by ATP to form Tyr-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Tyr). Has both an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase activity and is involved in the splicing of group I introns. It acts in intron splicing by stabilizing the catalytically active structure of the intron.
