Figure 1. — Secondary structure and mutagenesis of VA RNA_I. Sequence and secondary structure of the TSΔ21 variant of VA RNA_I (20), shown in the extended conformation with the alternate asymmetric internal loop structure as boxed inset. The VA RNA_I terminal stem is omitted but the nucleotide numbering shown corresponds to the full-length RNA (nts 1–155). Three tetranucleotide sequences involved in key base-pairing interactions for these alternate structures are highlighted along with mutations made to generate the 67–70U (outline font) and 75,76G RNAs (dashed line box).
