Abstract excerpt
Because of variations in tRNA sequences in evolution, tRNA synthetases either do not acylate their cognate tRNAs from other organisms or execute misacylations which can be deleterious in vivo. We report here the cloning and primary sequence of a 958-aa Saccharomyces cerevisiae alanyl-tRNA synthetase. The enzyme is a close homologue of the human and Escherichia coli enzymes, particularly in the region of the...
