  2. Transfer RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_RNA

    In the A/T site, the A-site half resides in the small ribosomal subunit where the mRNA decoding site is located. The mRNA decoding site is where the mRNA codon is read out during translation. The T-site half resides mainly on the large ribosomal subunit where EF-Tu or eEF-1 interacts with the ribosome.

    The presence of this functional group causes the helix to mostly take the A-form geometry, [11] although in single strand dinucleotide contexts, RNA can rarely also adopt the B-form most commonly observed in DNA. [12] The A-form geometry results in a very deep and narrow major groove and a shallow and wide minor groove. [13]

  5. Non-coding RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-coding_RNA

    These RNA elements form one of two possible structures in regions encoding very short peptide sequences that are rich in the end product amino acid of the operon. A terminator structure forms when there is an excess of the regulatory amino acid and ribosome movement over the leader transcript is not impeded.

  6. tRNA nucleotidyltransferase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRNA_nucleotidyltransferase

    In eukaryotes, multiple forms of tRNA nucleotidyltransferases are synthesized from a single gene and are distributed to different subcellular compartments in the cell. There are multiple in-frame start codons which allow for the production of variant forms of the enzyme containing different targeting information predominantly found in the N ...

  7. Nucleic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid

    Strings of nucleotides are bonded to form spiraling backbones and assembled into chains of bases or base-pairs selected from the five primary, or canonical, nucleobases. RNA usually forms a chain of single bases, whereas DNA forms a chain of base pairs. The bases found in RNA and DNA are: adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine, and uracil. Thymine ...

  8. T arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_arm

    Transfer RNA. The T-arm or T-loop is a specialized region on the tRNA molecule which acts as a special recognition site for the ribosome to form a tRNA-ribosome complex during protein biosynthesis or translation (biology). The T-arm has two components to it; the T-stem and the T-loop.

  9. D arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_arm

    Transfer RNA. The D arm is a feature in the tertiary structure of transfer RNA (tRNA). It is composed of the two D stems and the D loop. The D loop contains the base dihydrouridine, for which the arm is named. [1] The D loop's main function is that of recognition.
