==Crystal structure of cladosporin in complex with plasmodium like human lysyl-tRNA synthetase mutant==

== Structural highlights ==

<table><tr><td colspan='2'>[[4ycw]] is a 8 chain structure with sequence from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human Human]. Full crystallographic information is available from [http://oca.weizmann.ac.il/oca-bin/ocashort?id=4YCW OCA].

== Function ==

[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SYK_HUMAN SYK_HUMAN]] Catalyzes the specific attachment of an amino acid to its cognate tRNA in a 2 step reaction: the amino acid (AA) is first activated by ATP to form AA-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of the tRNA. When secreted, acts as a signaling molecule that induces immune response through the activation of monocyte/macrophages. Catalyzes the synthesis of diadenosine oligophosphate (Ap4A), a signaling molecule involved in the activation of MITF transcriptional activity. Interacts with HIV-1 virus GAG protein, facilitating the selective packaging of tRNA(3)(Lys), the primer for reverse transcription initiation.<ref>PMID:5338216</ref> <ref>PMID:15851690</ref>  [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/AIMP2_HUMAN AIMP2_HUMAN]] Required for assembly and stability of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase complex. Mediates ubiquitination and degradation of FUBP1, a transcriptional activator of MYC, leading to MYC down-regulation which is required for aveolar type II cell differentiation. Blocks MDM2-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of p53/TP53. Functions as a proapoptotic factor.<ref>PMID:16135753</ref>
