Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
monomer structures of C-terminally truncated AlaRS, with both activation and editing domains in the apo form, in complex with an Ala-AMP analog, and in a high-resolution lysine-methylated form. Docking of the editing domain to the activation domain occurs opposite from the predicted tRNA-binding surface. The editing site is positioned more than 35 A from the activation site. Results suggest that tRNA translocation via a canonical CCA flipping is unlikely to occur in AlaRS. Zinc binds in the editing site, in which the specific coordination of zinc will be facilitated by a conserved GGQ motif Pyrococcus horikoshii
