Abstract excerpt
The specific recognition by Escherichia coli glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS) of tRNA(Gln) is mediated by extensive protein:RNA contacts and changes in the conformation of tRNA(Gln) when complexed with GlnRS. In vivo accuracy of aminoacylation depends on two factors: competition between synthetases, and the context and recognition of identity elements in the tRNA. The structure of the tRNA(Gln):GlnRS complex...
