The global organization of the tRNA structure is highly conserved in all forms of life. Prominent features of the tRNA structure, as shown in the figure, include: an acceptor stem with the CCA ...

tRNAs have a distinct cloverleaf secondary structure and an L-shaped tertiary structure. The cloverleaf structure is formed by the folding of the single-stranded tRNA molecule, which is typically ...

RNA breaks destined for repair are inflicted by sequence-specific or structure-specific endoribonucleases during physiological RNA processing (e.g. tRNA splicing; kinetoplast mRNA editing) and under ...

The researchers discovered how one enzyme uses another's structure as a scaffold to recognize and efficiently process these ...
