Annotation score:5 out of 5

<p>The annotation score provides a heuristic measure of the annotation content of a UniProtKB entry or proteome. This score <strong>cannot</strong> be used as a measure of the accuracy of the annotation as we cannot define the 'correct annotation' for any given protein.<p><a href='/help/annotation_score' target='_top'>More...</a></p>-Experimental evidence at protein leveli <p>This indicates the type of evidence that supports the existence of the protein.

<p>This section provides any useful information about the protein, mostly biological knowledge.<p><a href='/help/function_section' target='_top'>More...</a></p>Functioni

Required for the formation of a threonylcarbamoyl group on adenosine at position 37 (t6A37) in tRNAs that read codons beginning with adenine. Catalyzes the conversion of L-threonine, HCO3-/CO2 and ATP to give threonylcarbamoyl-AMP (TC-AMP) as the acyladenylate intermediate, with the release of diphosphate. Is also able to catalyze the reverse reaction in vitro, i.e. the formation of ATP from TC-AMP and PPi. Shows higher affinity for the full-length tRNA(Thr) lacking only the t6A37 modification than for its fully modified counterpart. Could also be required for the maturation of 16S rRNA. Binds to double-stranded RNA but does not interact tightly with either of the ribosomal subunits, or the 70S particles.

Miscellaneous

TsaBCDE are necessary and sufficient for tRNA(NNU) t6A37 threonylcarbamoyladenosine modification in vitro in E.coli.1 Publication
Unlike previously thought, the formation of TC-AMP does not proceed via an ATP-activated HCO3- intermediate such as carboxy-AMP.1 Publication

Caution

Was also proposed to catalyze the transfer of the threonylcarbamoyl moiety of TC-AMP to the N6 group of A37 (PubMed:21285948 and PubMed:21775474). However, it was shown that this reaction is catalyzed in B.subtilis by the TsaEBD proteins (PubMed:23072323).1 Publication
The well-known t6A modification appears to be a hydrolyzed artifact of natural cyclic t6A (ct6A) that occurs during the preparation and handling of tRNA in E.coli and many other species (PubMed:23242255). In these species, the t6A modification is processed further by dehydration into ct6A, a reaction catalyzed by TcdA.Curated
