Since glycyl transfer RNA (glycyl-tRNA) is utilized for both peptidoglycan and protein synthesis in Staphylococcus aureus, the possible existence of more than one glycyl-tRNA synthetase in this microorganism was investigated. The glycyl-tRNA synthetase has been purified 200-fold from sonic extracts of S. aureus H, and no evidence of a second enzyme has been found. This enzyme can also charge the tRNAs of certain other bacteria and yeast. Some of its properties are reported.
