Identification
Name:Seryl-tRNA synthetase
Synonyms:
  • Serine--tRNA ligase
  • SerRS
  • Seryl-tRNA(Ser/Sec) synthetase
Gene Name:serS
Enzyme Class:
Biological Properties
General Function:Involved in nucleotide binding
Specific Function:Catalyzes the attachment of serine to tRNA(Ser). Is also able to aminoacylate tRNA(Sec) with serine, to form the misacylated tRNA L-seryl-tRNA(Sec), which will be further converted into selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec)
