CD Accession:
cl18434
CD Definition:
Initiator tRNA phosphoribosyl transferase; This enzyme (EC:2.4.2.-) modifies exclusively the initiator tRNA in position 64 using 5'-phosphoribosyl-1'-pyrophosphate as the modification donor. As the initiator tRNA participates both in the initiation and elongation of translation, the 2'-O-ribosyl phosphate modification discriminates the initiator tRNAs from the elongator tRNAs.
