| Name | tRNA dimethylallyltransferase activity |
| ID | GO_0052381 |
| collection_id | Molecular function |
| Alternative ID | GO:0004811 |
| Exact synonym | dimethylallyl-diphosphate:tRNA dimethylallyltransferase activity |
| Description | Catalysis of the reaction: dimethylallyl diphosphate + tRNA = diphosphate + tRNA containing 6-dimethylallyladenosine. |
| Related synonym | tRNA isopentenyltransferase activity |
| Comment | Note that this activity was formerly know in GO and EC as 'tRNA isopentenyltransferase' (EC:2.5.1.8, GO:0004811), but it is now known that dimethylallyl diphosphate, rather than isopentenyl diphosphate, is the substrate. |
