|
ATP binding
|
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator. |
GO:0008033
|
tRNA processing
|
The process in which a pre-tRNA molecule is converted to a mature tRNA, ready for addition of an aminoacyl group. |
GO:0000287
|
magnesium ion binding
|
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with magnesium (Mg) ions. |
GO:0000049
|
tRNA binding
|
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with transfer RNA. |
GO:0004826
|
phenylalanine-tRNA ligase activity
|
Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + L-phenylalanine + tRNA(Phe) = AMP + diphosphate + L-phenylalanyl-tRNA(Phe). |
GO:0006432
|
phenylalanyl-tRNA aminoacylation
|
The process of coupling phenylalanine to phenylalanyl-tRNA, catalyzed by phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase. In tRNA aminoacylation, the amino acid is first activated by linkage to AMP and then transferred to either the 2'- or the 3'-hydroxyl group of the 3'-adenosine residue of the tRNA. |
