Examinations of tRNA Range of Motion Using Simulations of Cryo-EM Microscopy and X-Ray Data

Figure 2

tRNA Catalog. (a) Six crystal structures of unbound Phe-tRNAPhe. The ribbon in the middle is from 1EHZ. (b) Crystal structures (41) of tRNA free and in complexes, including synthetases and ribosomal (Table S1) aligned at the acceptor stems and the anticodon stems. The ribbon in the middle is from 1EHZ. (c) Phe-tRNAPhe crystal structures (6) aligned at the acceptor stem (shown in divergent stereo), thus illustrating the range of motion at the anticodon stem loops, and notice the closely aligned acceptor stem regions.
