Protein Family Models

This all alpha helical domain is the anticodon binding domain in Arginyl and glycyl tRNA synthetase. This domain is known as the DALR domain after characteristic conserved amino acids [1].

This domain is found at the amino terminus of Arginyl tRNA synthetase, also called additional domain 1 (Add-1). It is about 140 residues long and it has been suggested that this domain will be involved in tRNA recognition [1]. [1]. 9736621. L-arginine recognition by yeast arginyl-tRNA synthetase..

This HMM recognizes arginyl-tRNA synthetase in every completed genome to date. An interesting feature of the alignment of all arginyl-tRNA synthetases is a fairly deep split between two families. One family includes archaeal, eukaryotic and organellar, spirochete, E. coli, and Synechocystis sp. The second, sharing a deletion of about 25 residues in the central region relative to the first, includes Bacillus subtilis, Aquifex aeolicus, the Mycoplasmas and Mycobacteria, and the Gram-negative bacterium Helicobacter pylori.
