Protein attributes

Sequence length	346 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Catalyzes the attachment of tyrosine to tRNA(Tyr) in a two-step reaction: tyrosine is first activated by ATP to form Tyr-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Tyr) By similarity.
Catalytic activity	ATP + L-tyrosine + tRNA(Tyr) = AMP + diphosphate + L-tyrosyl-tRNA(Tyr).
Subunit structure	Homodimer.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
Biophysicochemical properties	Kinetic parameters: KM=0.5 µM for tRNA-Tyr
