General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function knockdown of CAE results in the accumulation of truncated tRNAs, abolishes translation, and inhibits both total and mitochondrial CCA-adding activities. Mitochondrially localized tRNAs are much less affected by the CAE ablation than the other tRNAs. The N-terminal 10 amino acids of CAE are dispensable for its activity and mitochondrial localization and deletion of 10 further amino acids abolishes both. A growth arrest caused by the CAE knockdown is rescued by the expression of the cytosolic isoform of yeast CAE Trypanosoma brucei brucei
