General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the production of L-lysyl-tRNA(Lys)transfer and the transfer of a lysyl group from L-lysyl-tRNA(Lys) to membrane-bound phosphatidylglycerol (PG), which produces lysylphosphatidylglycerol (LPG), one of the components of the bacterial membrane with a positive net charge. LPG synthesis contributes to the resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) and likely protects M.tuberculosis against the CAMPs produced by competiting microorganisms (bacteriocins). In fact, the modification of anionic phosphatidylglycerol with positively charged L-lysine results in repulsion of the peptides By similarity. HAMAP MF_00252

Catalytic activity

ATP + L-lysine + tRNA(Lys) = AMP + diphosphate + L-lysyl-tRNA(Lys). HAMAP MF_00252

L-lysyl-tRNA + phosphatidylglycerol = tRNA + 3-phosphatidyl-1'-(3'-O-L-lysyl)glycerol. HAMAP MF_00252

Cofactor

Binds 3 magnesium ions per subunit By similarity. HAMAP MF_00252

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Potential HAMAP MF_00252.

Miscellaneous

There are two lysyl-tRNA ligases in M.bovis. HAMAP MF_00252

Sequence similarities

In the N-terminal section; belongs to the LPG synthetase family.

In the C-terminal section; belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.

Contains 1 OB DNA-binding domain.
