Recognition of human mitochondrial tRNALeu(UUR) by its cognate leucyl-tRNA synthetase.

Journal of molecular biology - 21 May 2004

Sohm Bénédicte, Sissler Marie, Park Hyejeong, King Michael P, Florentz Catherine

Abstract excerpt

Accuracy of protein synthesis depends on specific recognition and aminoacylation of tRNAs by their cognate aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. Rules governing these processes have been established for numerous prokaryotic and eukaryotic cytoplasmic systems, but only limited information is available for human mitochondrial systems. It has been shown that the in vitro transcribed human mitochondrial tRNA(Leu(UUR)) does not...
