Type: | Family | Name: | tRNA threonylcarbamoyladenosine biosynthesis protein SUA5 |
Description: | The yeast SUA5 protein is part of the YrdC/SUA5 family is required for the formation of threonylcarbamoyladenosine in tRNA []. SUA5 has been shown to be required for translational regulation [] and telomere recombination [] and replication [] in yeast.Members of this group contain two domains: a YrdC-like domain and the C-terminal SUA5-like domain. The YrdC-like domain has been implicated in RNA-binding, which correlates with its proposed role as a translation factor []. There is a prediction for the RNA-binding site in the depression on the surface of the protein based on the structural features []. The C-terminal SUA5-type domain has been shown to be essential for the regulatory function of SUA5 protein []. | Short Name: | t(6)A37_SUA5 |
