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