| Official Name |
|---|
| Tubulin--tyrosine ligase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| TTL. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| ATP + detyrosinated alpha-tubulin + L-tyrosine <=> alpha-tubulin + ADP + phosphate |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- L-tyrosine is linked via a peptide bond to the C-terminus of
de-tyrosinated alpha-tubulin (des-Tyr(omega)-alpha-tubulin).
- The enzyme is highly specific for alpha-tubulin and moderately
specific for ATP and L-tyrosine.
- L-phenylalanine and 3,4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine are transferred but
with higher Km values.
