Description
The enzyme acetylates the wobble base cytidine34 of the CAU anticodon of elongation-specific tRNAMet. Escherichia coli TmcA strictly discriminates elongator tRNAMet from tRNAIle, which is structurally similar and has the same anticodon loop, mainly by recognizing the C27-G43 pair in the anticodon stem. The enzyme can use GTP in place of ATP for formation of N4-acetylcytidine.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC～-80 ºC.
Reaction
[elongator tRNAMet]-cytidine34 + ATP + acetyl-CoA + H2O = CoA + [elongator tRNAMet]-N4-acetylcytidine34 + ADP + phosphate
