General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the attachment of valine to tRNA(Val). As ValRS can inadvertently accommodate and process structurally similar amino acids such as threonine, to avoid such errors, it has a "posttransfer" editing activity that hydrolyzes mischarged Thr-tRNA(Val) in a tRNA-dependent manner. HAMAP MF_02004

Catalytic activity

ATP + L-valine + tRNA(Val) = AMP + diphosphate + L-valyl-tRNA(Val). HAMAP MF_02004

Cofactor

Binds 2 zinc ions per subunit. HAMAP MF_02004

Subunit structure

Monomer. HAMAP MF_02004

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm. HAMAP MF_02004

Domain

ValRS has two distinct active sites: one for aminoacylation and one for editing. The misactivated threonine is translocated from the active site to the editing site. Ref.3

The C-terminal coiled-coil domain is crucial for aminoacylation activity. Ref.3

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. ValS type 1 subfamily.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=0.7 µM for tRNA(Val) Ref.3

Experimental info

Mutagenesis2161R → A: Decrease in posttransfer editing activity. No change in aminoacylation activity. Ref.4
Mutagenesis2641F → A: Decrease in posttransfer editing activity. No change in aminoacylation activity. Ref.4
Mutagenesis2701K → A: Strong decrease in posttransfer editing activity. Slight decrease in Val-tRNA(Val) formation, which could be due to deacylation of the synthesized Val-tRNA(Val). Ref.4
Mutagenesis2721T → A: Decrease in posttransfer editing activity. No change in aminoacylation activity. Ref.4
Mutagenesis2761D → A: No change in aminoacylation and posttransfer editing activities. Ref.4
Mutagenesis2791D → A: Strong decrease in posttransfer editing activity. No change in aminoacylation activity. Ref.4
Mutagenesis8181R → A: Increase in Km for tRNA(Val), without change in Kcat; when associated with A-843. Ref.3
