PUS1-1, the longer isoform of PUS1 located in the mitochondrion (Fernandez-Vizarra et al. 2007), converts uridine-27 and uridine-28 to pseudouridine residues in the anticodon stems of mitochondrial tRNA(Lys)(UUU) and tRNA(Ser)(UGA) (Patton et al. 2005, Fernandez-Vizarra et al. 2007, Sibert et al. 2008, Sibert and Patton 2012). Isomerization of uracil to pseudouridine creates an extra hydrogen bond donor and increases base stacking, acting to rigidify the RNA structure (reviewed in Charette and Gray 2000). As inferred from yeast Pus1p, PUS1 may also convert uridine to pseudouridine in other tRNAs and pre-tRNAs. Mutations in PUS1 cause mitochondrial myopathy and sideroblastic anemia (MLSA) (Bykhovskaya et al. 2004, Patton et al. 2005, Fernandez-Vizarra et al. 2007)
