Abstract excerpt
In transfer RNA many different modified nucleosides are found, especially in the anticodon region. In this region, pseudouridine (psi) is found in positions 38, 39 or 40 in a subset of tRNA species, 2-methylthio-6-hydroxyisopentenyladenosine (ms2io6A) is found in position 37 in tRNAs that read codons starting with U and 1-methylguanosine (m1G) is found in position 37 in tRNAs reading codons of the UCCNG type. We...
