Abstract excerpt
In our study of seryl-tRNA formation in maize, we investigated the enzymes involved in serylation. Only two dissimilar seryl-tRNA synthetase (SerRS) cDNA clones were identified in the Zea mays EST (expressed sequence tag) databases. One encodes a seryl-tRNA synthetase, which presumably functions in the organelles (SerZMm), while the other synthetase product is more similar to eukaryotic cytosolic counterparts...
