Protein Variants

EC Number Protein Variants Comment Organism
6.1.1.14 additional information truncated enzyme forms with deletions of 12, 27, 46, and 55 N-terminal residues reduce the kcat value of the wild-type enzyme by a factor 5-10 in diphosphate exchange and aminoacylation activity, but does not significantly change the Km of the three substrates. Deletions of 108 N-terminal residues or the internal segments 111-164 and 110-309 cause complete loss of activity. Deletions from the C-terminus of 24, 38, 60, 163, and 328 residues result in inactive enzyme forms. Whereas the wild-type enzyme binds both tRNAGly and noncognate tRNAAla, the mutant lacking 55 N-terminal residues shows altered binding of tRNAGly and does not bind tRNAAla Bombyx mori
