5′-32P-labeling of random alkali fragments (A), and 2D-TLC analysis of the wobble base nucleotide in U34 mutants of H. marismortui tRNA2Ile (B) and tRNA1Ile (C). Purified tRNAs were cleaved randomly with alkali; fragments were 5′-end labeled with 32P and separated by gel electrophoresis. The 5′-end nucleotide of the fragment corresponding to U*34 was analyzed by nuclease P1 digestion and 2D-TLC. Nonradioactive markers pA, pC, pG, and pU were visualized by UV-shadowing and are indicated by circles. (pU*) position of cnm5U.
