    [SW|Categories] containing this gene/protein

  • [SW|translation]
  • This gene is a member of the following [SW|regulons]

  • [SW|DtrR regulon], [SW|T-box]
  • Gene

    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • sensitive against D-Tyr [Pubmed|25733610]
  • a ''[protein|search|tyrS] [protein|search|tyrZ]'' double mutant is not viable [Pubmed|25733610]
  • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • ATP + L-tyrosine + tRNA(Tyr) = AMP + diphosphate + L-tyrosyl-tRNA(Tyr) (according to Swiss-Prot) ATP + L-tyrosine + tRNA(Tyr) = AMP + diphosphate + L-tyrosyl-tRNA(Tyr) (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • [protein|search|TyrZ] is highly specific for L-Tyr, prevents misincorporation of D-Tyr into proteins, less processive than [protein|search|TyrS] [Pubmed|25733610]
  • Protein family

  • TyrS type 2 subfamily (according to Swiss-Prot), class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • Modification

  • phosphorylated on Thr-311 [Pubmed|20509597]
  • [SW|Localization]

  • cytoplasm (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • Expression and Regulation

    Operon

  • ''[protein|search|dtrR]-[protein|search|tyrZ]'' [Pubmed|25733610]
  • [SW|Sigma factor]

  • ''[protein|search|tyrZ]'' [Pubmed|1735721]
  • Regulation

  • induced by tyrosine limitation ([protein|search|T-box]) [Pubmed|25733610,19258532,1735721]
  • Regulatory mechanism

  • [protein|search|T-box]: [SW|RNA switch], transcriptional antitermination [Pubmed|25733610,19258532,1735721]
  • [protein|search|DtrR]: transcriptional repression [Pubmed|25733610]
