Fig. 3. Initiator tRNA interactions at the P site.

Fig. 3

a Overall view of protein and RNA interactions with P site tRNA in IC2B. The color code is the same as in Figs. 1 and 2. Modified rRNA nucleotides are in red and unmodified nucleotides are in black. uS13 is shown in dark green, uS19 in cyan green and uS9 in light green. h44 is in black. Putative magnesium ions are in green spheres. For clarity, aIF2 subunits have not been drawn. b Closeup of P site interactions. c View of IC2B P site tRNA and surrounding universal proteins uS9, uS13, and uS19. d View of P site tRNA from a eukaryotic PIC obtained in the absence of eIF1 shown in the same orientation as view c (PDB: 6FYX17, eIF5 was not drawn for clarity).
