Taxonomic lineageBacteriaProteobacteriaAlphaproteobacteriaRhizobialesBrucellaceaeBrucella

Protein attributes

Sequence length515 AA.
Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceInferred from homology

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Is required not only for elongation of protein synthesis but also for the initiation of all mRNA translation through initiator tRNA(fMet) aminoacylation By similarity. HAMAP MF_01228

Catalytic activity

ATP + L-methionine + tRNA(Met) = AMP + diphosphate + L-methionyl-tRNA(Met). HAMAP MF_01228

Subunit structure

Monomer By similarity. HAMAP MF_01228

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm HAMAP MF_01228.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. MetG type 2B subfamily.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAL52168.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
