Abstract excerpt
The recognition manner of tRNA(Leu), a class II tRNA characterized by a long variable arm, by leucyl-tRNA synthetase from an extreme halophilic archaea, Haloferax volcanii, was studied using the in vitro transcription system. It was found that the discriminator base (A73) and the long variable arm, especially the specific loop sequence A47CG47D and U47H at the base of this helix, are significant for recognition...
