tRNA(Ile)-lysidine synthase activity

Term ID
GO:0032267
Synonyms
  • tRNA(Ile)-2-lysyl-cytidine synthase activity
  • tRNA(Ile)-lysidine synthetase activity
Definition
Catalysis of the ligation of lysine onto the cytidine residue present at the wobble position (usually position 34) of an AUA-specific isoleucine tRNA, to form the derivative lysidine. This modification converts both the codon specificity of tRNA(Ile) from AUG to AUA and its amino acid specificity from methionine to isoleucine. 14527414
