Abstract excerpt
Acceptor stem is an essential region in the recognition of tRNAs by their cognate aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase. In this study, a library containing 20 nt random region and tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase (TrpRS) from Bacillus subtilis were used for in vitro selection to find a new structural feature in the tRNA(Trp) acceptor stem sequence that is required for B. subtilis TrpRS recognition. After three rounds of...
