Question

Which of the following loop in the given diagram has ribosome recognition site?

• A. D-loop
• B. T loop
• C. Anticodon Loop
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B T loop

The T${}_{\Psi }$C pseudouridine arm (T loop) consists of a stem of 5 base pairs and a loop of 7 unpaired bases. The T${}_{\Psi }$C loop consists of a T${}_{\Psi }$C sequence at 5′ - 3′ direction. The T${}_{\Psi }$C arm has a ribosome recognition site and binds the tRNA molecules to the ribosome.
