Aminoacyl-tRNAs (aa-tRNAs) are simple molecules with a single purpose—to serve as
substrates for translation. They consist of mature tRNAs to which an amino acid has been …

The amide proteogenic amino acids, asparagine and glutamine, are two of the twenty amino
acids used in translation by all known life. The aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases for asparagine …

Background Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is a major participant in consortia of
microorganisms used for the industrial recovery of copper (bioleaching or biomining). It is a …

Aminolevulinic acid (ALA), the committed intermediate of the heme biosynthesis pathway,
shows significant promise for cancer treatment. Here, we identified that in addition to hemA …

A high level of accuracy during protein synthesis is considered essential for life. Aminoacyl-
tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) translate the genetic code by ensuring the correct pairing of …

Irradiation of green vegetables with different wavelengths of light represents a safe and
effective technology that can be used to maintain postharvest quality. In this regard, our …

Glutamyl-tRNA (Glu-tRNA), formed by Glu-tRNA synthetase (GluRS), is a substrate for
protein biosynthesis and tetrapyrrole formation by the C5 pathway. In this route Glu-tRNA is …

Divergent tRNA substrate recognition patterns distinguish the two distinct forms of aspartyl-
tRNA synthetase (AspRS) that exist in different bacteria. In some cases, a canonical …

The objective of study was to investigate the underlying mechanisms responsible for the
ability of 2-Ethylhexylglycidylether (EHGE) fumigation to inhibit the yellowing and …

Highlights•Many bacteria are missing asparaginyl-tRNA and/or glutaminyl-tRNA
synthetase.•Asn-tRNA Asn and Gln-tRNA Gln are produced in a two-step, indirect …
