General Information

Term

methionyl-tRNA aminoacylation

ID (Ontology)

GO:0006431 (Gene Ontology)

Definition

The process of coupling methionine to methionyl-tRNA, catalyzed by methionyl-tRNA synthetase. The methionyl-tRNA synthetase is a class-I synthetase. The activated amino acid is transferred to the 2'-OH group of a methionine-accetping tRNA. The 2'-O-aminoacyl-tRNA will ultimately migrate to the 3' position via transesterification.[ ISBN:0716730510 ]
