A 5-methyluridine (m(5)U) residue at position 54 is a conserved feature of bacterial and eukaryotic tRNAs. The methylation of U54 is catalyzed by the tRNA(m5U54)methyltransferase, which in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is encoded by the nonessential TRM2 gene. In this study, we

Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) from all kingdoms contain a variety of post-transcriptional modifications and these are typically clustered in the functional centers of the ribosome. The functions of two bases in the 23S rRNA of Escherichia coli that are post-transcriptionally modified

Biochemistry, 34(12), 4125-4132 (1995-03-28)
Recent studies have shown that there can be large differences in the stability of double and triple helical nucleic acid complexes, depending on whether RNA or DNA strands are involved. These differences have been attributed to structural differences in the

Novel 5'-O-DMT- and MMT-protected 3'-C-methylene-modified thymidine, 5-methyluridine, and 5-methylcytidine H-phosphonates 1-7 with O-methyl, fluoro, hydrogen, and O-(2-methoxyethyl) substituents at the 2'-position have been synthesized by a new effective strategy from the corresponding key intermediates 3'-C-iodomethyl nucleosides and intermediate BTSP, prepared

Photolabile nucleotides that disrupt nucleic acid structure are useful mechanistic probes and can be used as tools for regulating biochemical processes. Previous probes can be limited by the need to incorporate multiple modified nucleotides into oligonucleotides and in kinetic studies
