Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase, illustration

Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase molecule. Illustration showing bacterial glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase complexed with a mutant tRNA (transfer ribonucleic acid) and an active site inhibitor. Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase attaches the correct amino acid, in this case glutamine, onto the corresponding tRNA molecule during protein translation.
