Document Summary
Give the abbreviations for 3 sites (a, p, e) for trna binding to the ribosome; know what each abbreviation stands for. Each is a single chain containing between 73&93 ribonucleotides. 3"cca terminal region which is part of a region called the acceptor stem and 5". 3. end of trna is phosphorylated usually pg. Twc loopp which is named from the sequence ribothymine pseudoracil cytosine. The extra arm which contains a variable number of residues. Know the function and location of several important sequences of trnas: caa (acceptor) stem; anticodon loop; t c loop. Cca accept stem is located at the end of the 3" that usually attaches to the activated amino acid. This single strand region changes conformation in the course of activated amino acid and protein synthesis. The anticodon loop is located at the other end of the l which makes it accessible to the three codons. Twc loop has a sequence of ribothymine pseudoruacil cytosine.
