Abstract
The bases of yeast tRNA(Phe) which react with carbodiimide and methoxyamine have been determined and this information has been combined with chemical modification studies of other workers to produce a composite picture of base accessibility in this tRNA. The results are compared with the three-dimensional structure which we have recently determined. The bases which react chemically lie in exposed positions in the three-dimensional model and those which do not are either in the double helical stem regions or else are involved in maintaining the tertiary structure through pairing or stacking interactions.Entities:
