Identification of the gltX gene encoding glutamyl-tRNA synthetase from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum

|March 1, 1996
Abstract:
The gltX gene encoding glutamyl-tRNA synthetase from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum has been cloned, sequenced, and identified. The gene is located immediately downstream of idsA in an operon containing at least three additional ORFs. The deduced protein sequence from gltX contains conserved regions (HIGH and KMSKS) indicative of a class I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase.
