Tyrosine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic

BE0000230ProteinHumansYARS1

Tyrosine--tRNA ligase that 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) (Probable) (PubMed:25533949). It is acted on by 8 drugs in DrugBank.
