Small RNAs assigned to tRNA. (A) An alignment of small RNAs assigned to HisGTG tRNA. Only the top six sequences are aligned with the complete sequence of His tRNA. (B) – (E) Schematic representation of tRNA cloverleaf structures, which are obtained from the Genomic tRNA database [32], and aligned regions of major small RNAs assigned to the tRNA. Bold font indicates small RNA sequences. Gray color indicates added "CCA" in tRNA maturation process, which is not encoded in the genome.
