Initiator tRNA lacking 1-methyladenosine is unexpectedly targeted by the rapid tRNA decay pathway in evolutionarily distant yeast species
Monika Tasak, Eric M. Phizicky
The paper shows that the rapid tRNA decay pathway is involved in degrading tRNAiMet(CAU) lacking m1A58 in both S. pombe and S. cerevisiae, challenging previous assumptions about tRNA decay mechanisms.
