FIGURE 2

The secondary structure of E. coli tmRNA. The TLD (red), PK1 (green), ORF (light blue), helix 5, PK2 (purple), PK3 (orange), and PK4 (blue) regions are indicated. The TLD contains a D loop, a conserved TψC loop, and a G/U pair in the acceptor stem, the latter of which is recognized by alanyl-tRNA synthetase.
