Comments [?]

Function Catalytic subunit of the queuine tRNA-ribosyltransferase (TGT) that catalyzes the base-exchange of a guanine (G) residue with queuine (Q) at position 34 (anticodon wobble position) in tRNAs with GU(N) anticodons (tRNA-Asp, -Asn, -His and -Tyr), resulting in the hypermodified nucleoside queuosine (7-(((4,5-cis-dihydroxy-2-cyclopenten-1-yl)amino)methyl)-7-deazaguanosine). Catalysis occurs through a double-displacement mechanism. The nucleophile active site attacks the C1' of nucleotide 34 to detach the guanine base from the RNA, forming a covalent enzyme-RNA intermediate. The proton acceptor active site deprotonates the incoming queuine, allowing a nucleophilic attack on the C1' of the ribose to form the product.
Catalytic activity RHEA:16633: guanosine(34) in tRNA + queuine = guanine + queuosine(34) in tRNA
EC 2.4.2.64
case <FTGroup:1>
Cofactor Zn(2+)
end case
case <OC:Vertebrata>
Subunit Heterodimer of a catalytic subunit @gn(QTRT1) and an accessory subunit @gn(QTRT2).
Subcellular location Cytoplasm. Mitochondrion outer membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Note=Weakly associates with mitochondria, possibly via @gn(QTRT2).
else
Subunit Heterodimer of a catalytic subunit and an accessory subunit.
Subcellular location Cytoplasm.
end case
Similarity Belongs to the queuine tRNA-ribosyltransferase family.
