Complex structure of CCA-adding enzyme with tRNAminiDCCComplex structure of CCA-adding enzyme with tRNAminiDCC
Structural highlights
2dr9 is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Archaeoglobus fulgidus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
CCA_ARCFU Catalyzes the addition and repair of the essential 3'-terminal CCA sequence in tRNAs without using a nucleic acid template. Adds these three nucleotides in the order of C, C, and A to the tRNA nucleotide-73, using CTP and ATP as substrates and producing inorganic pyrophosphate.[1]
