In enzymology a serine-tRNA ligase (EC 6.1.1.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionATP + L-serine + tRNASer AMP + diphosphate + L-seryl-tRNASerThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP L-serine and tRNA(Ser) whereas its 3 products are AMP diphosphate and L-seryl-tRNA(Ser).This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases to be specific those forming carbon-oxygen bonds in aminoacyl-tRNA and related compounds.
