  5.4.99.20 | evolution |
pseudouridylation is catalyzed by two different systems: stand-alone pseudouridine synthases found in all domains of life and H/ACAribonucleoproteins (RNPs) that are only present in archaea and eukaryotes. All pseudouridine synthases are classified into six families based on the presence of common motifs, which are named after representative enzymes, namely, RluA, RsuA, TruA, TruB, TruD and Pus10 |

introduction of the rluE mutation into a strain carrying an inactivated phosphotransacetylase (pta) gene reverses the effects of the pta mutation, restoring growth rates to wild-type levels |

Pseudouridines are not only found in rRNA but in all types of cellular RNA including mRNAs, tRNAs, small nuclear RNAs, small nucleolar RNAs and long-noncoding RNAs. In general, pseudouridines are thought to play a role in RNA stabilization, structure and correct RNA folding. RluE is a faster pseudouridine synthase than other enzymes which likely enables it to act in the early stages of ribosome formation.
