GO Classification
Functions
  • glutamate-tRNA ligase activity
  • tRNA binding
  • glutamate-tRNA(Gln) ligase activity
  • ATP binding
Processes
  • tRNA aminoacylation for protein translation
  • glutamyl-tRNA aminoacylation
  • gene expression
  • tRNA aminoacylation for mitochondrial protein translation
Components
  • mitochondrial matrix
  • mitochondrion
General FunctionTrna binding
Specific FunctionCatalyzes the attachment of glutamate to tRNA(Glu) in a two-step reaction: glutamate is first activated by ATP to form Glu-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Glu).
