The difference between a Class I and a Class II tRNA synthetase is:

A. the Class I synthetase requires ATP cofactor and the Class II does not. B. the Class I synthetase uses the 2'-OH of 3' end of the tRNA as a nucleophile and the Class II uses the 3'-OH. C. the Class II synthetase reaction requires a transesterification reaction not necessary in the Class I reaction. D. the Class II synthetases are typically monomeric, whereas the Class I enzymes frequently function as multimeric protein complexes.
