a

The tRNA symbol indicates the wild-type anticodon sequence.

b

Two different aminoacylated species were observed using the tRNAmcm5s2UUCGlu probe. The aminoacylation level for tRNAmcm5s2UUCGlu was probably overestimated since the signal for the slower-migrating nonaminoacylated form is in close proximity to the signals for the two aminoacylated forms.

c

wt, wild type; ND, not determined.
