Abstract
The majority of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases recognize two or more tRNA species. The extraordinary specificity of the various synthetases for their substrate tRNAs (for a recent review, see ref. 4) could be related to the base sequence of the tRNA, to its overall geometry, or to both features. It is of interest, therefore, to study changes in the tRNA sequence and the effect of such changes in biosynthetic systems.
