Comments [?]

case <OC:Archaea> and not <Feature:PF08915>
Function Catalyzes the attachment of threonine to tRNA(Thr) in a two-step reaction: L-threonine is first activated by ATP to form Thr-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Thr).
else
Function Catalyzes the attachment of threonine to tRNA(Thr) in a two-step reaction: L-threonine is first activated by ATP to form Thr-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Thr). Also edits incorrectly charged L-seryl-tRNA(Thr).
end case
Catalytic activity RHEA:24624: ATP + L-threonine + tRNA(Thr) = AMP + diphosphate + H(+) + L-threonyl-tRNA(Thr)
EC 6.1.1.3
case <FTGroup:1>
Cofactor Zn(2+)
Note: Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.
end case
Subunit Homodimer.
Subcellular location Cytoplasm.
case <OC:Archaea> and <Feature:PF08915>
Domain The N-terminal domain is an archaea-specific tRNA-editing domain that hydrolyzes incorrectly charged L-seryl-tRNA(Thr). Catalysis of tRNA editing is performed by the charged tRNA itself.
end case
Similarity Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
