This enzyme catalyses one of the early steps in the synthesis of queosine (Q-tRNA), and is followed by the action of EC 2.4.2.29, queuine tRNA-ribosyltransferase. Queosine is found in the wobble position of tRNAGUN in Eukarya and Bacteria [2] and is thought to be involved in translational modulation. The enzyme is not a GTP cyclohydrolase, as was thought previously based on sequence-homology studies.
