Abstract excerpt
The selenocysteine-inserting tRNA (tRNA(Sec)) of E. coli differs in a number of structural features from all other elongator tRNA species. To analyse the functional implications of the deviations from the consensus, these positions have been reverted to the canonical configuration. The following results were obtained: (i) inversion of the purine/pyrimidine pair at position 11/24 and change of the purine at...
