all canonical tRNAs have a uridine at position 8, involved in maintaining tRNA tertiary structure. The hyperthermophilic archaeon Methanopyrus kandleri harbors 30 (out of 34) tRNA genes with cytidine at position 8. The enzyme catalyzes C-to-U editing at this location. The presence of this C-to-U editing enzyme guarantees the proper folding and functionality of all Methanopyrus kandleri tRNAs
