Enzyme Information

2.7.7.79
tRNA(His) guanylyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt P53215
p-tRNA(His) + ATP + GTP + H(2)O = pG-P-tRNA(His) + AMP + 2 diphosphate.
-!- In eukarya an additional guanosine residue is added post- transcriptionally to the 5'-end of tRNA(His) molecules. -!- The addition occurs opposite a universally conserved adenosine(73) and is thus the result of a non-templated 3'-5' addition reaction. -!- The additional guanosine residue is an important determinant for aminoacylation by EC 6.1.1.21. -!- The enzyme requires a divalent cation for activity. -!- ATP activation is not required when the substrate contains a 5'-triphosphate (ppp-tRNA(His)).
