Comments [?]

Function Catalyzes the addition and repair of the essential 3'-terminal CCA sequence in tRNAs without using a nucleic acid template. Adds these three nucleotides in the order of C, C, and A to the tRNA nucleotide-73, using CTP and ATP as substrates and producing inorganic pyrophosphate. tRNA 3'-terminal CCA addition is required both for tRNA processing and repair. Also involved in tRNA surveillance by mediating tandem CCA addition to generate a CCACCA at the 3' terminus of unstable tRNAs. While stable tRNAs receive only 3'-terminal CCA, unstable tRNAs are marked with CCACCA and rapidly degraded.
Catalytic activity RHEA:14433: a tRNA precursor + ATP + 2 CTP = a tRNA with a 3' CCA end + 3 diphosphate
EC 2.7.7.72
RHEA:76235: a tRNA with a 3' CCA end + ATP + 2 CTP = a tRNA with a 3' CCACCA end + 3 diphosphate
PhysiologicalDirection=left-to-right (RHEA:76236)
Cofactor Mg(2+)
Subunit Homodimer.
Miscellaneous A single active site specifically recognizes both ATP and CTP and is responsible for their addition.
Similarity Belongs to the tRNA nucleotidyltransferase/poly(A) polymerase family. Archaeal CCA-adding enzyme subfamily.
