Comments [?]

case <FTTag:NonDiscr1_bact> or <FTTag:NonDiscr2_bact>
Function Aspartyl-tRNA synthetase with relaxed tRNA specificity since it is able to aspartylate not only its cognate tRNA(Asp) but also tRNA(Asn). Reaction proceeds in two steps: L-aspartate is first activated by ATP to form Asp-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Asp/Asn).
Catalytic activity RHEA:18349: ATP + L-aspartate + tRNA(Asx) = AMP + diphosphate + L-aspartyl-tRNA(Asx)
EC 6.1.1.23
else
Function Catalyzes the attachment of L-aspartate to tRNA(Asp) in a two-step reaction: L-aspartate is first activated by ATP to form Asp-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Asp).
Catalytic activity RHEA:19649: ATP + L-aspartate + tRNA(Asp) = AMP + diphosphate + L-aspartyl-tRNA(Asp)
EC 6.1.1.12
end case
Subunit Homodimer.
Subcellular location Cytoplasm.
Similarity Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Type 1 subfamily.
