| Abstract | We have investigated the influence of structures in the tRNA anticodon loop and stem on the ability of the anticodon to discriminate among codons. We had previously shown that anticodon UCC, when placed in the structural context of tRNA(Gly1) from Escherichia coli, discriminated efficiently between the glycine codons, as required by the wobble rules. Thus, this anticodon read GGA and GGG but did not read GGU and GGC, whereas in mycoplasma tRNA(Gly), the same anticodon did not discriminate among the glycine codons. We have now determined the reading properties of three constructions based on tRNA(Gly1) containing the anticodon UCC in different structural contexts. In one of these constructs, tRNA(Gly1-ASL), the anticodon loop and stem are the same as in mycoplasma tRNA(Gly). The second construct, tRNA(Gly1-AS), has an anticodon stem identical with the mycoplasma tRNA(Gly), whereas in the last construct, tRNA(Gly1-C32), the only difference from tRNA(Gly1)(UCC) is that the uridine in position 32 of the anticodon loop has been replaced by cytidine. These constructs were tested for ability to read glycine codons in an in vitro protein-synthesizing system that allowed us to monitor separately the reading of each codon. We found that the anticodon UCC, when present in tRNA(Gly1-AS), discriminated among the glycine codons, whereas in the constructs tRNA(Gly1-ASL) and tRNA(Gly1-C32), the same anticodon had lost its ability to discriminate--i.e., it behaved as in mycoplasma tRNA(Gly). These results strongly suggest that nt 32 of the anticodon loop of tRNA(Gly1)(UCC) decisively influences the reading properties of the anticodon UCC. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
