[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SYY_ECOLI SYY_ECOLI] Catalyzes the attachment of tyrosine to tRNA(Tyr) in a two-step reaction: tyrosine is first activated by ATP to form Tyr-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Tyr).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_02006]

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The genetic code in a eukaryotic system has been expanded by the engineering of Escherichia coli tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS) with the Y37V and Q195C mutations (37V195C), which specifically recognize 3-iodo-L-tyrosine rather than L-tyrosine. In the present study, we determined the 3-iodo-L-tyrosine- and L-tyrosine-bound structures of the 37V195C mutant of the E. coli TyrRS catalytic domain at 2.0-A resolution. The gamma-methyl group of Val-37 and the sulfur atom of Cys-195 make van der Waals contacts with the iodine atom of 3-iodo-L-tyrosine. The Val-37 and Cys-195 side chains are rigidly fixed by the neighboring residues forming the hydrophobic core of the TyrRS. The major roles of the two mutations are different for the 3-iodo-L-tyrosine-selective recognition in the first step of the aminoacylation reaction (the amino acid activation step): the Y37V mutation eliminates the fatal steric repulsion with the iodine atom, and the Q195C mutation reduces the L-tyrosine misrecognition. The structure of the 37V195C mutant TyrRS complexed with an L-tyrosyladenylate analogue was also solved, indicating that the 3-iodo-L-tyrosine and L-tyrosine side chains are similarly discriminated in the second step (the aminoacyl transfer step). These results demonstrate that the amino acid-binding pocket on the 37V195C mutant is optimized for specific 3-iodo-L-tyrosine recognition.
