tRNAs have a distinct cloverleaf secondary structure and an L-shaped tertiary structure. The cloverleaf structure is formed by the folding of the single-stranded tRNA molecule, which is typically ...

Results of a multinational genetic study suggest that defects in transfer RNA (tRNA) processing may be responsible for many cases of the neurodegenerative disease pontocerebellar hypoplasia (PCH).

It is analogous to Southern blotting, which is used to analyze DNA. This protocol describes the transfer of RNA from agarose gels to nylon membranes and the fixation of the RNA to the membrane 1,2,3.

The smaller 40S subunit binds the messenger RNA that constitutes the protein’s genetic blueprint, as well as the transfer RNA that carries each specific amino acid to be added to the growing chainlike ...

RNA acts as a messenger and regulator in the process of gene expression. Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes, where proteins are synthesized. Transfer RNA ...

Their study, published in the EMBO Journal, reveals the detailed mechanisms of how mitochondria process transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules, which are essential for energy production. Mitochondria, known as ...
