Abstract excerpt
Identity elements determine the accurate recognition between tRNAs and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. The arginine system from yeast and Escherichia coli has been studied extensively in the past. However, information about the enzymes from higher eukaryotes is limited and plant aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases have been largely ignored in this respect. We have designed in vitro tRNA transcripts, based on the soybean...
