'''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 in the ribosomal small subunit ''Ribosomal small subunit pseudouridine synthase''.  Ribosomal large subunit pseudouridine synthase RluD is responsible for synthesis of pseudouridine from uracil in positions 1911, 1915 and 1917 in 23S ribosomal RNA<ref>PMID:15928344</ref>. '''Probable tRNA pseudouridine synthase''' (PPUS) is a similar enzyme.
