?
ATP + L-leucine + tRNALeu a two step reaction, the first of which is reversible, aminoacylation and editing by LeuRS require migration of the tRNA acceptor stem end between the canonical aminoacylation core and a separate domain called CP1 that is responsible for amino acid editing, post-transfer editing mechanism., overview Saccharomyces cerevisiae AMP + diphosphate + L-leucyl-tRNALeu
-
?
additional information the LeuRS CP1 domain can also support group I intron RNA splicing in the yeast mitochondria, overview, the RDW peptide, a highly conserved peptide within an RDW-containing motif, is important for enzyme interactions, the RDW peptide is dynamic and forms unique sets of interactions with the aminoacylation and editing complexes, overview Saccharomyces cerevisiae ?
