Residues 1-42 of Escherichia coli tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase are similar to residues 293-334 of the human estrogen receptor. A computer analysis yields a comparison score that is 8.2 standard deviations higher than that obtained with 10,000 comparisons of randomized sequences of these segments (P = 1.2 X 10(-16). This part of tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase binds ATP, which suggests that residues 293-334 of the human estrogen receptor are part of an ATP binding site.
