Abstract
The phosphates of the tRNA1Ser from bovine liver (tRNA which has a long variable loop) participating in the formation of three dimensional structure were studied by alkylation modification was observed for the following phosphates: 8, 9, 11 (at the bend site between the acceptor and D-stem), 21- in the D-loop, 47 G, 47 I and 49 in the variable stem and at the joint of variable and T-stem. 56, 58, 59 in the T-loop. The variable arm of tRNA1Ser from bovine liver is exposed in solution.
