Nematode-specific tRNAs that decode an alternative genetic code for leucine
Class II transfer RNAs (tRNAs), including tRNALeu and tRNASer, have an additional stem and loop structure, the long variable arm (V-arm). Here, we describe Class II tRNAs with a unique anticodon corresponding to neither leucine nor serine. Because these tRNAs are specifically conserved among the nem...
