An archaeal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase missing from genomic analysis.

C S Hamann1, K R Sowers, R S Lipman, Y M Hou.   

Abstract

The complete genomic sequencing of Methanococcus jannaschii cannot identify the gene for the cysteine-specific member of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. However, we show here that enzyme activity is present in the cell lysate of M. jannaschii. The demonstration of this activity suggests a direct pathway for the synthesis of cysteinyl-tRNA(Cys) during protein synthesis.
