Crystal structure of yeast tRNAAsp: atomic coordinates.
The atomic coordinates of yeast aspartic acid transfer RNA, as determined from a crystallographic investigation to 3 A resolution, are presented. In the ribose phosphate backbone sugars are in the C(3')-endo pucker, except for residues A7, A9, D16, G17, G18, D19, C20, U48, A58, and U60 which are in the C(2')-endo pucker. A least-squares superposition of the phosphorus atoms of yeast tRNAAsp and yeast tRNAPhe enlightens both an overall structural similarity and significant conformational differences. The largest deviations occur in the D-loop and the anticodon region.
