(A) Interactions between ValRS and the tRNAVal anticodon stem (stereoview). Each domain of ValRS is shown as a contact surface colored as in Figure 1. The tRNAVal is shown as a ball-and-stick representation with the contact surface colored translucent white. (B) Interactions between IleRS and the tRNAIle anticodon stem (stereoview); representation as in Figure 5A.
