Introduction

Pfam

The Thg1 protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is responsible for adding a GMP residue to the 5' end of tRNA His [1]. The catalytic domain Thg1 contains a RRM (ferredoxin) fold palm domain, just like the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases, reverse transcriptases, family A and B DNA polymerases, adenylyl cyclases, diguanylate cyclases (GGDEF domain) and the predicted polymerase of the CRISPR system [2]. Thg1 possesses an active site with three acidic residues that chelate Mg++ cations [2]. Thg1 catalyzes polymerization similar to the 5'-3' polymerases [2].

The Thg1 protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is responsible for adding a GMP residue to the 5' end of tRNA His [PUBMED:14633974]. The catalytic domain of Thg1 contains a RRM (ferredoxin) fold palm domain, just like the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases, reverse transcriptases, family A and B DNA polymerases, adenylyl cyclases, diguanylate cyclases (GGDEF domain) and the predicted polymerase of the CRISPR system [PUBMED:20591188]. Thg1 possesses an active site with three acidic residues that chelate Mg++ cations [PUBMED:20591188]. Thg1 likely catalyses polymerisation using a similar mechanism to the 5'-3' polymerases [PUBMED:20591188, PUBMED:21059936].
