| Abstract | The major determinant for the identity of alanine tRNAs is a single base pair in the acceptor helix that is proximal to the site of amino acid attachment. A 7-base-pair microhelix that recreates the acceptor helix can be charged with alanine. No other examples of charging of small helices with specific amino acids have been reported, to our knowledge. We show here that a 13-base-pair and an 8-base-pair hairpin helix that reconstruct a domain and subdomain, respectively, of histidine tRNAs can be charged with histidine. We also show that transplantation of a base pair that is unique to histidine tRNAs is sufficient to consider histidine acceptance on a domain and subdomain of alanine tRNA. Both alanine and histidine aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases retain specificity for their cognate synthetic substrates. Alanine- and histidine-specific microhelices may resemble a system that arose early in the evolution of charging and coding. |

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.
