Section 39.2 discussed the mechanism by which threonyl-tRNA synthetase attaches threonine to the proper tRNA while preventing the attachment of the similar amino acids valine and serine. Using this as a model, explain how an isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase might prevent the incorrect addition of the similar amino acids leucine and valine to its target tRNA. Valine could fit in the activation site.
[ Choose ] FALSE TRUE
Isoleucine could fit in the activation site.
[ Choose ] FALSE TRUE
Leucine could fit in the activation site.
[ Choose ] FALSE TRUE
Valine could fit in the editing site.
[ Choose ] FALSE TRUE
Isoleucine could fit in the editing site.
[ Choose ] FALSE TRUE
