Book ChapterDOI
The -C-C-A end of tRNA and its role in protein biosynthesis.
Mathias Sprinzl,Friedrich Cramer +1 more
TL;DR: The chapter discusses that the adaptor role of tRNA requires that it has at least two functionally different sites-one for the specific interaction with the messenger, and one for accepting and transferring the particular amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain.
Journal ArticleDOI
The involvement of 5S RNA in the binding of tRNA to ribosomes
TL;DR: 5S RNA is most likely part of a site with which the TψC-loop of tRNA interacts on the ribosome, and could be abolished by selective chemical modification of two adenines in 5S RNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzymatic Incorporation of ATP and CTP Analogues into the 3′ End of tRNA
TL;DR: Method for preparation of tRNA species, which are shortened at their 3' end by one or more nucleotides, and analytical procedures for characterisation of these modified tRNAs are described, and no differences can be observed in the substrate properties of ATP(CTP):tRNA nucleotidyl transferase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of ribothymidine in the thermal stability of transfer RNA as monitored by proton magnetic resonance
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the modifications of methionine tRNAs serve for stabilization of the tertiary structure of tRNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Specific Recognition of GTψC Loop (Loop IV) of tRNA by 50S Ribosomal Subunits from E. coli
TL;DR: The tetranucleotide TpψpCpGp binds to 50S ribosomal subunits and by doing so inhibits EF-Tu-directed aminoacyl-tRNA binding, EF- Tu-linked GTP hydrolysis and ribosome-dependent synthesis of magic spot I.
