ND_PkAspRS_like_N: N-terminal, anticodon recognition domain of the type found in the homodimeric non-discriminating (ND) Pyrococcus kodakaraensis aspartyl-tRNA synthetase (AspRS). This domain is a beta-barrel domain (OB fold) involved in binding the tRNA anticodon stem-loop. P. kodakaraensis AspRS is a class 2b aaRS. aaRSs catalyze the specific attachment of amino acids (AAs) to their cognate tRNAs during protein biosynthesis. This 2-step reaction involves i) the activation the AA by ATP in the presence of magnesium ions, followed by ii) the transfer of the activated AA to the terminal ribose of tRNA. In the case of the class2b aaRSs, the activated AA is attached to the 3'OH of the terminal ribose. P. kodakaraensis ND-AspRS can charge both tRNAAsp and tRNAAsn. Some of the enzymes in this group may be discriminating, based on the presence of homologs of asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase (AsnRS) in their completed genomes.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.
Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms.
