Abstract excerpt
Mutant human initiator tRNA genes carrying changes in each of the three features unique to eukaryotic initiator tRNAs have been constructed, and introduced into CV-1 monkey kidney cells using SV40 virus vectors. The mutant tRNA genes are expressed, and the mutant tRNAs can all be aminoacylated with both rabbit liver and Escherichia coli methionyl-tRNA synthetases. Based on aminoacylation levels, the tRNAs are...
