E coli tRNA coding for tyrosine GTA anti-codon
E. coli tRNA^Tyr(GTA) is an 85-nucleotide transfer RNA that decodes UAC and UAU tyrosine codons via its GTA (GUA) anticodon and is aminoacylated by tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS), a class I homodimeric enzyme. Unlike most bacterial tRNAs, tRNA^Tyr possesses an unusually long variable arm, a feature it shares with tRNA^Ser and tRNA^Leu, and adopts an extended cloverleaf secondary structure that folds into the canonical L-shaped tertiary architecture. The discriminator base A73 and the C1–G72 base pair at the top of the acceptor stem are primary identity elements for TyrRS recognition, while the first anticodon base G34 makes critical contacts with the enzyme's anticodon-binding loop. The wobble position G34 undergoes queuosine (Q) modification in vivo, although unmodified tRNA^Tyr (this listing included) remains efficiently aminoacylated in vitro. tRNA^Tyr has been extensively engineered as an orthogonal tRNA scaffold, particularly the Methanococcus jannaschii TyrRS/tRNA^Tyr pair, for genetic code expansion and the site-specific incorporation of non-canonical amino acids into proteins in E. coli and eukaryotic systems.

PRIME is the standard quality RNA made by Cisterna. All RNAs including mRNAs are made with PRIME quality. The PRIME platform generates very low impurities such as dsRNA, short-truncated products, abortive transcripts and DNA:RNA hybrids. The result is a highly pure RNA that is functional and can be used for most downstream applications demanding high-purity such as X-ray crystallography, Cryo-EM, tRNA aminoacylation and to generate maximum amount of functional proteins.
Both PRIME and SPECC reflect Cisterna's commitment to high-quality RNA, but they are designed for different needs and applications. PRIME is Cisterna's standard production system and is applicable to all RNA types. It delivers very high purity RNA suitable for a wide range of demanding applications, from structural studies to functional protein expression. SPECC (SPEcific Capture and Cleavage) is Cisterna's flagship system and is currently applicable to mRNA only. It takes purity a step further by selectively isolating full-length mRNA transcripts, approaching HPLC-level purity. SPECC is the ideal choice when the highest possible mRNA quality is required, particularly for quantitative studies, high-dose applications, and therapeutic development. In terms of cost, SPECC is approximately 5-10x the price of PRIME, reflecting the advanced purification processes involved. While affordably priced, PRIME still delivers very high RNA quality, well above what you might expect at this price point.
