P33371
tRNA-dihydrouridine(16) synthase
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot protein
Short name | DUSC_ECOLI |
Length | 315 amino acids |
Species | Escherichia coli (strain K12) |
Proteome | UP000000625 |
Gene | dusC |
Function | Catalyzes the synthesis of 5,6-dihydrouridine (D), a modified base found in the D-loop of most tRNAs, via the reduction of the C5-C6 double bond in target uridines. DusC specifically modifies U16 in tRNAs |
