Enzyme Information

3.1.1.-
Carboxylic ester hydrolases.
based on mapping to UniProt O66742
3.1.1.96
D-aminoacyl-tRNA deacylase.
based on mapping to UniProt O66742
A D-aminoacyl-tRNA + H(2)O = a D-amino acid + tRNA.
-!- The enzyme from Escherichia coli can cleave D-tyrosyl-tRNA(Tyr), D-aspartyl-tRNA(Asp) and D-tryptophanyl-tRNA(Trp). -!- Whereas the enzyme from the archaeon Pyrococcus abyssi is a zinc protein, the enzyme from Escherichia coli does not carry any zinc.
