    In the human genome, which, according to January 2013 estimates, has about 20,848 protein coding genes [32] in total, there are 497 nuclear genes encoding cytoplasmic tRNA molecules, and 324 tRNA-derived pseudogenes—tRNA genes thought to be no longer functional [33] (although pseudo tRNAs have been shown to be involved in antibiotic ...

    Parts-per-million cube of relative abundance by mass of elements in an average adult human body down to 1 ppm. About 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium ...

    The adult human body is estimated to contain about 30 trillion (3×10 13) human cells, with the number varying between 20 and 100 trillion depending on factors such as sex, age, and weight. Additionally, there are approximately an equal number of bacterial cells.

    There are more than 100 other naturally occurring modified nucleosides. [22] The greatest structural diversity of modifications can be found in tRNA, [23] while pseudouridine and nucleosides with 2'-O-methylribose often present in rRNA are the most common. [24] The specific roles of many of these modifications in RNA are not fully understood.
