== Function ==
__TOC__
'''tRNA pseudouridine synthase''' (PUS) catalyzes the conversion of tRNA uridine to tRNA pseudouridine<ref>PMID:14566049</ref>.  PUS are active in the ribosomal large subunit [[Ribosomal large subunit pseudouridine synthase]] and ribosomal small subunit [[Ribosomal small subunit pseudouridine synthase]]. '''Probable tRNA pseudouridine synthase''' (PPUS) is a similar enzyme.  
==Function==
[[Pseudouridine]] is an abundant modified nucleoside found in RNA molecules. It is formed post-transcriptionally in RNA molecules by isomerization of the bond between base and ribose in uridine. There are two major types of enzymes that catalyze this reaction:


== Structural highlights ==
* [[RNA-guided pseudouridine synthase]] -- Some ribonucleoproteins (complexes of proteins and small RNAs) have been identified in archaea and eukaryotes to catalyze these reactions. The small RNA in the complex serves as a guide element to select the site of modification through base-pairing with the target RNA molecule.
The conversion of uridine to pseudouridine causes conformational change of PUS<ref>PMID:14990747</ref>. <scene name='46/465439/Cv/3'>tRNA pseudouridine synthase binding with pseudouridine monophosphate</scene> ([[1ze2]]).

*  [[Guide-independent Pseudouridine synthase|Guide-independent pseudouridine synthase]] -- The alternative to using the RNA-guided mechanism for pseudouridine formation is a [[Guide-independent Pseudouridine synthase|guide-independent mechanism]] acting through protein-only enzymes to catalyze the isomerization.
