RESUMO

A single polypeptide of leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LRS) has been purified from budding bakers' yeast by a modification of the procedure published earlier. On denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis LRS was one band corresponding to molecular weight of 120,000 +/- 5,000 daltons. Variable amounts of LRS with a similar molecular weight but which dissociated into equal subunits of 58,000 were also isolated. The affinities (KM) for substrates for this form of the enzyme were similar to those previously reported for the dimeric form of the enzyme.
