Predicted to enable triplet codon-amino acid adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial translational elongation. Located in mitochondrion.
SGD Description
Mitochondrial lysine tRNA (tRNA-Lys); predicted by tRNAscan-SE analysis; modification of wobble base U34 is decreased at elevated temperatures, decreasing ability to decode AAG codons; this function is performed at high temperature by imported cytoplasmic tRNA-Lys with CUU anticodon
