The process of coupling tyrosine to tyrosyl-tRNA, catalyzed by tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase. The tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase is a class-I synthetase. The activated amino acid is transferred to the 2\'-OH group of a tyrosine-accetping tRNA. The 2\'-O-aminoacyl-tRNA will ultimately migrate to the 3\' position via transesterification.
