| General description: | Jo-1, or histidyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase, is a homodimeric enzyme that catalyzes the coupling of histidine to its specific transfer RNA (tRNA), prior to transport of histidine to the ribosome, and subsequent incorporation of histidine into polypeptide chains. Jo-1 has been associated with various autoimmune disorders, such as polymyositis and dermatomyositis, and T-cell mediated autoimmunity. |
