tRNA-cytidine(32) 2-sulfurtransferase and similar proteins tRNA-cytidine(32) 2-sulfurtransferase, also called two-thiocytidine biosynthesis protein A or tRNA 2-thiocytidine biosynthesis protein TtcA, catalyzes the ATP-dependent 2-thiolation of cytidine in position 32 of tRNA, to form 2-thiocytidine (s(2)C32). TtcA belongs to the adenine nucleotide alpha hydrolase superfamily (AANH) that includes N-type ATP PPases and ATP sulfurylases. It forms an alpha/beta/alpha fold which binds to the adenosine group. This domain has a strongly conserved motif SGGKD at the N-terminus.
