The Molecular Basis Of Inheritance

The basic structure (clover leaf, of contains 3 loops and one lump. The ' arm is called acceptor arm. It has at its one end that accepts amino acid and form aminoacyl tRNA. loop (or ribosomal binding site) binds with the ribosome.

Anticodon loop has three specific base sequences making the code. This code pairs with the codon present on the mRNA. DHU loop binds amino acid synthetase. This is made up of bases. A lump is present between loop and anticodon loop.
