In prokaryotic cells three tRNA species, tRNASer, tRNALeu and tRNATyr, possess a long variable arm of 11–20 nucleotides (type 2 tRNA) rather than usual 4 or 5 nucleotides (type 1 tRNA). In this review we have summarized the results of our research on the structural basis for recognition and discrimi...
