Identification
HMDB Protein ID HMDBP00648
Secondary Accession Numbers
  • 5920
  • HMDBP09250
Name Leucine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic
Synonyms
  1. LeuRS
  2. Leucine--tRNA ligase
  3. Leucyl-tRNA synthetase
Gene Name LARS
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in nucleotide binding
Specific Function Catalyzes the specific attachment of an amino acid to its cognate tRNA in a two step reaction: the amino acid (AA) is first activated by ATP to form AA-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of the tRNA. Exhibits a post-transfer editing activity to hydrolyze mischarged tRNAs.
Pathways
  • Aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis
