General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the attachment of isoleucine to tRNA(Ile). As IleRS can inadvertently accommodate and process structurally similar amino acids such as valine, to avoid such errors it has two additional distinct tRNA(Ile)-dependent editing activities. One activity is designated as 'pretransfer' editing and involves the hydrolysis of activated Val-AMP. The other activity is designated 'posttransfer' editing and involves deacylation of mischarged Val-tRNA(Ile).

Catalytic activity

ATP + L-isoleucine + tRNA(Ile) = AMP + diphosphate + L-isoleucyl-tRNA(Ile).

Cofactor

Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.

Subunit structure

Monomer.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm.

Domain

IleRS has two distinct active sites: one for aminoacylation and one for editing. The misactivated valine is translocated from the active site to the editing site, which sterically excludes the correctly activated isoleucine. The single editing site contains two valyl binding pockets, one specific for each substrate (Val-AMP or Val-tRNA(Ile)).

Miscellaneous

Strain PS102 is resistant to the antibiotic mupirocin (pseudomonic acid A), an Ile-analog that competitively inhibits activation by Ile-tRNA synthetase, thus inhibiting protein biosynthesis.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. IleS type 1 subfamily.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=5 µM for isoleucine

KM=0.4 mM for ATP
