additional information | Thermus thermophilus | the specific enzyme incorporates only a highly restricted number of nucleotides in a tRNA primer and then stops polymerization at a high efficiency and accuracy. It selects exclusively CTP and ATP for incorporation and discriminates strongly against the other two nucleotide triphosphates. It does not require a nucleic acid template for directing order and nature of nucleotides to be inserted and is highly selective for tRNA-like structures as a polymerization substrate. The enzyme fulfills both functions in maintenance/repair as well as de novo polymerization | ? | - |

evolution | with a possible origin of ancient telomerase-like activity, the CCA-adding enzymes obviously emerged twice during evolution, leading to structurally different, but functionally identical enzymes. While the enzyme class 1 is exclusively found in archaea, class 2 tRNA-nucleotidyltransferases are present in eukaryotes and bacteria. Class 1 enzymes have a tRNA-binding body domain consisting of a beta sheet with flanking alpha helices. Head and neck domains form the active site and are also composed of alpha-helical and beta-sheet elements. The chemical mechanism underlying the polymerization appears conserved in all polymerases across the three kingdoms of life | Thermus thermophilus |
