Description: The initiator tRNA is special since it recognizes and binds to the AUG codon that would normally code for methionine, but it actually carries an N-formylmethionine. The formyl group is added after charging of the tRNA, by an enzyme (transformylase) that recognizes the particular tRNAfMet and transfers a formyl group from 10-formyltetrahydrofolate Picture Stats: Views: 338 Filesize: 29.54kB Height: 179 Width: 438 Source: https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=35087 |
