The superimposable dinucleotide fold domains of MetRS, GlnRS and TyrRS define structurally equivalent amino acids which have been used to constrain the sequence alignments of the 10 class I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRS). The conservation of those residues which have been shown to be critical in some aaRS enables to predict their location and function in the other synthetases, particularly: i)...
Comparison of the amino-acid sequences of several methionyl-tRNA synthetases indicates the occurrence of a few conserved motifs, having a possible functional significance. The role of one of these motifs, centered at position 300 in the E. coli enzyme sequence, was assayed by the use of site-directed mutagenesis. Substitution of the His 301 or Trp 305 residues by...
