TRIT1 transfers a dimethylallyl group (isopentenyl group) from dimethylallyl diphosphate to the N6 position of adenosine-37 in mitochondrial tRNA(Ser,UCN), yielding N6-dimethylallyladenosine-37 (N6-isopentenyladenosine-37) (Lamichhane et al. 2013, Yarham et al. 2014). TRIT1 modifies both cytosolic and mitochondrial tRNAs and a mutation in TRIT1 causes defects in mitochondrial protein synthesis and respiration (Yarham et al. 2014).
