Gene Ontology Help

Phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase 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
Catalyses the esterificaion of phenylalanine to its cognate tRNA with the concomitant hydrolysis of ATP. The activated amino acid is transferred to the 2-OH group of a phenylalanine-accepting tRNA.
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.

RNA binding, ion binding, ligase activity, amino acid metabolic process, tRNA aminoacylation for protein translation, tRNA metabolic process
