This discovery is more than just figuring out the structure of the METTL6–serine tRNA synthetase complex bound to tRNA; it's ...

New results from ultrafast spectroscopy and in-depth theoretical calculations demonstrate that the complex folded structure of tRNA is stabilized by magnesium ions in direct contact with phosphate ...

The structure of a key enzyme involved in protein production is revealed by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Using cryo-EM, researchers at Goethe University (Frankfurt, Germany) shed light on ...

Magnesium contact ions stabilize the macromolecular structure of transfer RNA Date: December 9, 2020 Source: Forschungsverbund Berlin Summary: In cells transfer RNA (tRNA) translates genetic ...

Transfer RNA (tRNA) has a very specific shape that enables it to shepherd amino acids to the cellular machinery that is building a protein from mRNA. When viruses infect human cells, they can hijack ...
