Taxonomic lineage

Eukaryota › Fungi › Dikarya › Ascomycota › Saccharomycotina › Saccharomycetes › Saccharomycetales › Saccharomycetaceae › Saccharomyces

Protein attributes

Sequence length	708 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Catalyzes the attachment of glutamate to tRNA(Glu) in a two-step reaction: glutamate is first activated by ATP to form Glu-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Glu) By similarity.
Catalytic activity	ATP + L-glutamate + tRNA(Glu) = AMP + diphosphate + L-glutamyl-tRNA(Glu).
Subunit structure	Interacts with ARC1. Ref.9 Ref.10
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm.
Miscellaneous	Present with 48700 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. Ref.7
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
Sequence caution	The sequence AAA78905.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at position 698.
