This is the N-terminal domain found in putative tRNA-binding proteins found in archaea. Structural analysis from Pyrococcus horikoshii indicate that it is a helical domain where many conserved residues are found in the first three helices and are mainly located on the inverse side of the putative tRNA-binding site. A structural homology search suggested that this fold prefers to bind proteins/peptides [1].
This domain is found in prokaryotic methionyl-tRNA synthetases, prokaryotic phenylalanyl tRNA synthetases the yeast GU4 nucleic-binding protein (G4p1 or p42, ARC1) [2], human tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase [1], and endothelial-monocyte activating polypept ...
This domain is found in prokaryotic methionyl-tRNA synthetases, prokaryotic phenylalanyl tRNA synthetases the yeast GU4 nucleic-binding protein (G4p1 or p42, ARC1) [2], human tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase [1], and endothelial-monocyte activating polypeptide II. G4p1 binds specifically to tRNA form a complex with methionyl-tRNA synthetases [2]. In human tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase this domain may direct tRNA to the active site of the enzyme [2]. This domain may perform a common function in tRNA aminoacylation [1].
