CTU1

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: CTU1
  • Official Name: cytosolic thiouridylase subunit 1
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 90353
  • UniProt: Q7Z7A3
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: Plays a central role in 2-thiolation of mcm(5)S(2)U at tRNA wobble positions of tRNA(Lys), tRNA(Glu) and tRNA(Gln). Directly binds tRNAs and probably acts by catalyzing adenylation of tRNAs, an intermediate required for 2-thiolation. It is unclear whether it acts as a sulfurtransferase that transfers sulfur from thiocarboxylated URM1 onto the uridine of tRNAs at wobble position. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03053, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19017811}.
