Name | pseudouridine synthase activity |
ID | GO_0009982 |
collection_id | Molecular function |
Alternative ID | GO:0016439 |
Description | Catalysis of the reaction: a uridine in RNA = a pseudouridine in RNA. Conversion of uridine in an RNA molecule to pseudouridine by rotation of the C1'-N-1 glycosidic bond of uridine in RNA to a C1'-C5. |
Comment | Note that this term should not be confused with 'pseudouridylate synthase activity ; GO:0004730', which refers to the formation of free pseudouridine from uracil and ribose-5-phosphate. |
