[HTML][HTML] Beyond the Anticodon: tRNA Core Modifications and Their Impact on Structure, Translation and Stress Adaptation

MJ Yared, A Marcelot, P Barraud - Genes, 2024 - mdpi.com
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are heavily decorated with post-transcriptional chemical
modifications. Approximately 100 different modifications have been identified in tRNAs, and …
