TRNA-dihydrouridine16/17 synthase (NAD(P)+) (EC 1.3.1.88, Dus1p, tRNA-dihydrouridine synthase 1) is an enzyme with systematic name tRNA-5,6-dihydrouracil16/17:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase. [1] [2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(1) 5,6-dihydrouracil16 in tRNA + NAD(P)+ uracil16 in tRNA + NAD(P)H + H+
(2) 5,6-dihydrouracil17 in tRNA + NAD(P)+ uracil17 in tRNA + NAD(P)H + H+

This enzyme specifically modifies uracil16 and uracil17 in tRNA.

tRNA-dihydrouridine synthase

In molecular biology, tRNA-dihydrouridine synthase is a family of enzymes which catalyse the reduction of the 5,6-double bond of a uridine residue on tRNA. Dihydrouridine modification of tRNA is widely observed in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and also in some archaea. Most dihydrouridines are found in the D loop of t-RNAs. The role of dihydrouridine in tRNA is currently unknown, but may increase conformational flexibility of the tRNA. It is likely that different family members have different substrate specificities, which may overlap. Dus 1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae acts on pre-tRNA-Phe, while Dus 2 acts on pre-tRNA-Tyr and pre-tRNA-Leu. Dus 1 is active as a single subunit, requiring NADPH or NADH, and is stimulated by the presence of FAD. Some family members may be targeted to the mitochondria and even have a role in mitochondria.
