tRNA-specific adenosine-34 deaminase complex Overview

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies (Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component), a reference, and an evidence code.


Summary
Deaminates adenosine-34 (wobble position) to inosine in double-stranded tRNA. When present at the wobble position, inosine can pair degenerately with uracil, cytosine, or adenosine, enabling a single tRNA to recognize up to three different codons.
GO Slim Terms

The yeast GO Slim terms are higher level terms that best represent the major S. cerevisiae biological processes, functions, and cellular components. The GO Slim terms listed here are the broader parent terms for the specific terms to which this gene product is annotated, and thus represent the more general processes, functions, and components in which it is involved.

hydrolase activity, hydrolase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, RNA modification, tRNA metabolic process, tRNA processing
