Deskripsi

The recognition of the mRNA codon by the tRNA anticodon is crucial for protein synthesis. Here the authors introduce non-standard nucleotides in bacterial and eukaryotic mRNA to reveal the minimal hydrogen bond requirement of codon-anticodon interaction for efficient and accurate translation.
